1940: Germans get Enigma

On this day in 1940, the Germans set up two-way radio communication in their newly occupied French territory, employing their most sophisticated coding machine, Enigma, to transmit information.

The Germans set up radio stations in Brest and the port town of Cherbourg. Signals would be transmitted to German bombers so as to direct them to targets in Britain. The Enigma coding machine, invented in 1919 by Hugo Koch, a Dutchman, looked like a typewriter and was originally employed for business purposes. The German army adapted the machine for wartime use and considered its encoding system unbreakable. They were wrong. The Brits had broken the code as early as the German invasion of Poland and had intercepted virtually every message sent through the system. Britain nicknamed the intercepted messages Ultra.

Who Invented The Enigma

Answer 10

The official history of the Enigma starts in 1918, when the German Arthur Scherbius filed his first patent
for the Enigma coding machine. It is listed as patent number 416219 in the archives of the German Reichspatentamt
(patent office). Please note the time at which the Enigma was invented: 1918, just after the First
World War, more then 20 years before WWII!, but still none the less it never featured in WWI
