Abstract

On page 243 the author states that the purpose of Backing Bletchley is “to give the reader the bigger picture in respect of the integration of outstations with Bletchley Park and how it worked in practice.” The author Ronald Koorm is described as a person who has lectured on codebreaking and the outstations and who has done research on Eastcote, codebreaking, and the development of GCHQ. The outstations were located at Adstock, Wavendon, Gayhurst, Stanmore, and Eastcote. These were the locations outside of Bletchley Park where Bombe work was done. The reader is told (many times) that Bombes occasionally moved between the outstations and that data from the Bombe Registers shows that:

回顾《支持布莱切利:从伊斯特科特到GCHQ的密码破译站》,作者:罗纳德·库姆
在第243页,作者指出,支持布莱切利的目的是“让读者更全面地了解分站与布莱切利公园的整合及其在实践中的运作方式。”作者罗纳德·库姆被描述为一个讲授过密码破译和分站的人,并对伊斯特科特、密码破译和GCHQ的发展进行了研究。分站位于阿德斯托克、韦文登、盖赫斯特、斯坦莫尔和伊斯特科特。这些是布莱切利公园外的炸弹工作地点。读者(多次)被告知炸弹偶尔会在分站之间移动,炸弹寄存器中的数据显示:

期刊介绍: Cryptologia is the only scholarly journal in the world dealing with the history, the technology, and the effect of the most important form of intelligence in the world today - communications intelligence. It fosters the study of all aspects of cryptology -- technical as well as historical and cultural. The journal"s articles have broken many new paths in intelligence history. They have told for the first time how a special agency prepared information from codebreaking for President Roosevelt, have described the ciphers of Lewis Carroll, revealed details of Hermann Goering"s wiretapping agency, published memoirs - written for it -- of some World War II American codebreakers, disclosed how American codebreaking affected the structure of the United Nations.
