[PUZZLE] Caldwell code

[ahecht]

We determined that it was spanish and that ZZ PP was EE UU (Spanish abbrev. for USA), FJ was "la", ZF was "el", and CZ was "de".

[EGo]

VPZ = "que", perhaps?

sympatiza con alemania, evasivo
en enfrentar a ee uu por
nosotros. no se compromete a una
aliansa con alemania hasta que la
revolucion sea victoriosa. seguro
que se convenca ya que ofresquemos
recuperar el teritorio que
perdio en nuevo mexico, texas y
arizona.

It's possible that K=J instead of X, but it makes little difference.

Anyone speak spanish?

sympatiza with Germany, evasive in en?rentar to the U.S.A. by us. aliansa with Germany is not committed to one until the revolution is victorious se?uro that convenca since o?resquemos to recover teritorio that per?io in new mexico, Texas and Arizona.

[Nadif]

Specs:
en?rentar = enFrentar (to face, to oppose, to defy...)
per?io = perDio (lost)
not sure about "o?resquemos", working on it

Edit: enPrentar or enFrentar, not sure but the meaning is that.
re-edit: let's try a translation.

Sympathizes with Germany, evasive in facing the USA for us. Does not commit to an alliance with germany until the revolution is victorious. Certain to get convinced since we [ofresquemos: maybe there's some mistake here? In that case this coud be "since we offer"?] to regain the territory he lost in new mexico, texas and arizona.


DISCLAIMER: I don't speak spanish, I'm translating by ear here, so this can be a lot of bullshit

[AnathemA]

I think you're right, Nadif.
I edited it to reflect your changes.
