Well, the TWXs come through the secure commo centers using the DoD AUTODIN 
network.  Supposedly, the manual channels covering getting the typed original to
the comm center for transmission take care of authenticating the 
Sender/From/Authorized-by/etc.

Last I heard, the plan is to use the new MilNet/ARPANET protocols with the 
security and precedence stuff added to replace the aged AUTODIN.  How the 
AUTODIN-replacement network will be interconnected with the ARPANET, 
current-version MilNet, or any other part of the internet, I have no idea.
