“Islander” (cover names in Vassiliev notebooks): Unclear cover name.  Vassiliev Black Notebook, 21.  At 

other points in the notebooks, “Island” is a code-name for Great Britain, and an “Islander” is a 

Briton.  However, in this case the sentence reads “. . . foreign delegations, in particular the 

Islander, German, Chinese, and English ones”, and the English are listed separately from 

“Islander”.  Possibly this is just a repetitive mistake in the original document but possibly it 

refers to another country.
