I approve of this measure, although I think DeepO has some good points. Especially about how they will know how many units we have from the chart, and won't take our name changes too seriously.
However, these plans remind me of several Israeli operations during the '67 war and the '73 war actually. Because each brigade commander was given near total freedom within the operational goals, many commanders would acknowledge each other by a different set of callsigns each time, to lessen the risk of communications being intercepted and figured out.
This undoubtedly helped in many cases, where opposing armies had no idea who was where and doing what, etc....
