RE: enigma

Mike, the machine was given to the British by some Poles who got it from the Germans. One of the few things they succeeded at in WWII.

I hope you have enough film for all the pictures you will take in Peru. Make sure you get a shot of that

"Actually, it's my understanding that getting hold of an Enigma machine is what broke the code."

As one expert to another, I'm sure you would agree, that the Germans were confident that even with a machine it was an impossible task to break the code. It was the genius of a bunch of code breakers at Bletchley Park that did the trick. It was also the second war in a row that German secret messages were read by the Allies.
