Biographical History

Hiles (1896-1979), a career naval officer, served from 1914-1947 and retired with the rank of lieutenant commander. While serving in China as a naval paymaster from 1930-1932, he began the study of cryptography under Captain Laurance F. Safford. Hiles was stationed at Pearl Harbor when the Japanese attacked on December 7, 1941. After his retirement he devoted his energies to researching and writing about the events leading up to the Pearl Harbor attack and U.S. entry into World War II.
