AFW that wig wag is Semaphore. Or is it Flag Morse? See the attached scans.
This is not how the model verb was meant to be used but I think that what I have written makes sense (without a qualifying verb). I had difficulty writing this message in terms of the code. I would have had to prefix my message with UH.
I can understand the need for codes related to infectious diseases but BDC seems an interesting inclusion. I suppose that signalling would have been codified too late for Bligh to signal RY?
