Geocache Description:


Bletchley Park a British government cryptological  establishment in operation during world war 2 Bletchley Park was where Alan Turing and other agents of the ultra intelligence project decoded the enemy’s secret messages, most notably those that had been encrypted with the German enigma and Tunny cipher machines. Experts have suggested that the Bletchley Park codebreakers may have shortened the war by as much as two years.         https://cryptii.com/pipes/enigma-machine rotor 1 3 pos 1a  ring 1a rotor 2 VIII pos 17 q ring 3c rotor 3 IV pos 12 L ring 5 e

It was about 50 miles (80 km) northwest of London, conveniently located near a railway line that served both  universities. The property consisted of a Victorian manor house and 58 acres (23 hectares) of grounds. The British government acquired it in 1938 and made it a station of the Government Code and Cypher School (GC&CS), designated as Station X. At the start of the war in 1939, the station had only 200 workers, but by late 1944 it had a staff of nearly 9,000, working in three shifts around the clock. Experts at crossword-puzzle solving and chess, as well as mathematicians and scientists, were among those who were hired. About three-fourths of the workers were women.

 

To help their work, the staff designed and built equipment, most notably the bulky electromechanical code-breaking machines called bombes Later on, in January 1944, came colossus an early electronic computer with 1,600 vacuum tubes. The manor house was too small to accommodate everything and everyone, so dozens of wooden outbuildings had to be built. These buildings were called huts, although some were sizable. Turing was working in Hut 8 when he and his associates solved the enigma Other new buildings that were built from cement blocks and identified by letters, such as Block B.

Despite the importance of the work, Bletchley Park still had trouble getting sufficient resources. Therefore, in 1941 Turing and others wrote a letter directly to the Prime Minister who promptly ordered his chief of staff to “make sure they have all they want on extreme priority and report to me that this has been done.”

Operations were carried out under an injunction of strict secrecy that was not lifted even after the war ended.

Now its your turn first you will be radio agent interseping the messge you here the germans sending out from occupied France then it will go to a work station at the Park were the first station will brack the raido message then it will go to another hunt to be broken again then it will go to a third station to be traslated but heres a warning the germans change the roters every sunday so what works one week may not work the next good luck and remeber what we do here is secreat you will be charged with treason if you talk about what you do here you can not tell anyone not even your famliy .
