During World War II, the Allies successfully broke several German codes, most notably the Enigma machine codes, which were used for secure military communications. The work of cryptanalysts at Bletchley Park, particularly by figures like Alan Turing, led to the decryption of Enigma messages. Additionally, the Allies also managed to break the Lorenz cipher, used for high-level communications. These breakthroughs significantly contributed to the Allied victory by providing critical intelligence on German operations.

Who broke the German code in submarine warfare during World War 2?

No simple answer. Many books have been written about the subject. There were various codes (not just one) in use by the Germans in WW2. The Germans had different codes for the German Foreign Service, Military Intelligence, Navy, Army, Air Force, etc. Some were broken easily, until the Germans changed them. The British, French or Americans would crack them (entirely or a portion) for a short time until the next change. It was a process that never ended and continued the entire pre-war and war period. The most important German Code was code-named by the Allies: "Ultra". It was broken over a period of years. This is probably 'the code' that you have heard about. Google Ultrafor more details.


What was the battle of the atlanitc and how did the allies win it?

The Battle of the Atlantic was a prolonged naval conflict during World War II, lasting from 1939 to the war's end in 1945, primarily between the Allies and Nazi Germany. It involved the struggle for control of the Atlantic sea routes, crucial for transporting troops, supplies, and resources. The Allies ultimately won by employing advanced technology, including sonar and depth charges, improving convoy tactics, and using air cover to protect merchant ships from U-boat attacks. This strategic coordination, along with the production of more ships and the breaking of German codes, allowed the Allies to secure vital supply lines and diminish the effectiveness of German submarines.
