Well, they had radios in WW2, but they still used motorcycles to 
courier some orders around. Some stuff is just so sensitive you can't 
trust crypto to do the job - you need a guy to deliver it. And on low 
tech worlds, this may be more common. And on some worlds, comms may 
not work due to ionization... then orders must be distributed by 
runners - imagine a modern force operation with runners, motorcycle 
couriers, and some sealed orders.... could be interesting.....
