Polish memorial to the Polish mathematicians involved in code breaking in Bletchley Park, Bletchley. Buckinghamshire, UK.
Bletchley Park, Bletchley was the home of the WWII codebreakers (Alan Turing) who cracked Enigma and other codes. "During World War II, Bletchley Park was the site of the United Kingdom's main decryption establishment, the Government Code and Cypher School (GC&CS), where ciphers and codes of several Axis countries were decrypted, most importantly the ciphers generated by the German Enigma and Lorenz machines. It also housed Station X, a secret radio intercept station. The high-level intelligence produced at Bletchley Park, codenamed Ultra, provided crucial assistance to the Allied war effort. Sir Harry Hinsley, a Bletchley veteran and the official historian of British Intelligence in World War II, said that Ultra shortened the war by two to four years and that the outcome of the war would have been uncertain without it."
