    The German navy used an Enigma machine with extra rotors for increased security.

    In the Das Boot clip it also shows working the Enigma code machine and a guy in the background holding a standard sliderule. It would have been better if he were holding a HR-1 version of the Bygrave sliderule.

    Was the enigma used in the kreigsmarine? I thought that a different system was used.
