Explains that Bletchley Park had broken Enigma messages prior to the commencement of WW2 and the deployment of the Bombe. Reveals the UK had many Enigma machines and could adapt their X encryptor to emulate the Enigma machine. Explains how small protocol defects could lead to the code breaks. That the Germans needed radio for Blitzkreig was enlightening. This and the Manhattan Project were two of the most significant intellectual achievements of WW2.
