Most of the history books I've read mentioned the role of the Poles in breaking Enigma. Tom Clancy even mentioned it in The Hunt For Red October, in a subplot that didn't make the movie.

Agreed. I've known about this for a long time. Unfortunately, the Poles didn't get to exploit this success because the Germans occupied them after the West handed Hitler the Rhineland and Munich and Stalin sold them out.
