Throughout 1942, German U-boats were sinking hundreds of American
ships in the Atlantic Ocean, effectively cutting the supply line to embattled
ally England. In desperation, the United States Navy turned to the National
Cash Register Company in Dayton, Ohio, to design and build code-breaking
machines. The high-priority and highly classified project involved hundreds
