Not particularly relevant to to the thread but I’ll share anyway ... when I was in the RAF I did a crypto course at No1 Radio School, the lecturer passed around an Enigma machine which we had a play with. There was something wrong with it and I spent a while ‘fixing’ it, he jokingly said I could have a Q (qualification) for Enigma sadly I never received a certificate.

And unfortunately I can’t remember the history of the machine.
