On 9 May 1941 a convoy escort group attacked and forced to the surface Kapitänleutnant Lempe’s U-110. A boarding party from HMS Bulldog commanded by Sub-Lieutenant David Balme secured the submarine, prevented its sinking, and brought back to the destroyer documentation for the current Enigma. Though U-110 later sank under tow – fortunately so, from a security view-point – the short signal book, officer ciphering instructions and other material reached GC&CS safely, and the secret of the U-Boat’s capture was successfully maintained. An Enigma machine was also recovered, but perversely this was the least useful element of the booty, because Bletchley had one already, together with assorted rotors seized in earlier captures. Consequently, within days, Alan Turing’s Hut 8 would be reading a steady stream of German Naval messages.
