The Text Message » The Challenge of Federal Bureau of Investigation Records: Abbreviations and Euphemisms
On the surface the contents of the FBI files appear straightforward.  Actually they are not so simple to understand.  A Department of Justice senior attorney in the mid-1970s investigating illegal break-ins reported that his staff had been on the case for more than a year and “they still didn’t know how to read an FBI file.”  Part of the problem is the language used in the files.  Like any agency, the FBI has its own terminology and euphemisms that researchers will have to learn in order to understand what they are reading.
