from a Reagan speech, January 20, 1984 (on invading Grenada)

"I just have to tell you something -- I wasn't going to do this, but you're so nice. I wasn't going to do it because I've told so many of the people here on the stage this, and they've had to listen to it several times. But if you don't know, recently, one of our young lieutenants -- marine lieutenant flying a Cobra was off Grenada and then went on to Beirut. And from there he wrote back to the Armed Forces Journal something that he had been doing. He said that he noticed that every news story about the Grenada rescue mission contained a line -- every story -- that Grenada produces more nutmeg than any other place in the world. And he decided that was a code, and he was going to break the code. And he did.

He wrote back and said, ``Number one, Grenada produces more nutmeg than any place in the world. Number two, the Soviets and the Cubans are trying to take Grenada. Number three, you can't make good eggnog without nutmeg.'' ``And number four, you can't have Christmas without eggnog.'' ``Number five, the Soviets and the Cubans are trying to steal Christmas.'' ``And number six, we stopped them.''"
