9/18/2005 - In 1939 Polish intelligence offered to the
British the German encoding machine, Enigma, plus the keys to keep decoding
Wehrmacht secret messages, 80 per cent of which the Poles could read. The British,
obsessed with the Empire not Europe, had focused on trying to read Japanese naval codes and showed little interest in the fact the Poles were cracking German codes before the war started. http://hnn.us/roundup/entries/15260.html
