- Laundromat Counter Intelligence. The British military used laundry to save lives. During the war in Northern Ireland, they built a laundry and staffed it with locals and undercover officers. The laundry sent out “color-coded” special offers that matched specific streets. They laundered every item and put each through an analyzer. It checked for bomb-making residue. Using the colors, they identified places where bombs were being made. They then made arrests and confiscated bombs, weapons, and materials.
