WORLD WAR TWO - MISCELLANEOUS
Items of interest that do not actually fit into my other three categories.

Enigma. The German Code Machine. This page was written long before another of Hollywood's fictitious epics about how they helped the poor British by capturing a code machine for them (U571). This is the real account about how a determined cold wet sailor refused to let go of a bag dumped in the sea by captured sailors to find it contained the key to winning the war. Bletchley Park became a highly secret centre for code breaking and it is here that the world's first computer was invented. (Not by IBM!!). Now 2 pages |
