Enigmatic (Cipher cache) Mystery Cache

THE COORDS POSTED ARE NOT THE CACHE COORDS

One of the Third Riech's most formidible weapons wasn't a rocket, or Aircraft , or battlessip. It was hundreds of small wood and brass boxes. Well, it wasn't so much the boxes themselves that were formidible, but what they contained; a collection of wires, wheels and lights called "ENIGMA".

The Enigma device was the invention of a German inventor, Arthur Scheribus and his engineering partner , Richard Ritter. Together they founded the Scheribus & Ritter company in 1918. TheRitter and Scheribus Co. was an enginerring firm that dealt with all sorts of technology, from steam and water turbines to electrically heated pillows. But Scheribus' most famous pet project was a result of his desire to improve upon the woefully inadequite crytography used by Germany during WWI with 20th century technology. The result was the first 'Enigma Device'.

What made "Enigma" so formidible was the device's ease of use and sheer immensity of the number of possible encryption keys. With a three rotor device ( as used by German ground units) , there could be somewhere in the neighborhood of one QUADRILLION possible encryption keys! The naval (five disk,three rotor) and later 4 rotor devices increased the possiblites to nearly uncomprehinsible numbers!

If it werent for the falliable and human nature of the german enigma operators, and the ingenuity and inventiveness of the men and women of Bletchly Park,Alan Turing, Marian Rejewski of the Polish of the Biuro Szyfrow and scores of other highly talented people, the Enigma code may not have been broken in time to hasten the end of the war .
