File 255 - The workers manufacturing the Enigma

The file 255 contained the list of workers in the manufacture in which the machine "ENIGMA" was build, as well as their personal address. Bertrand explains that this document was not exploited. Either the agent in charge of contacting the workers did not dare to accomplish his mission and presented it as impossible, or it was really impossible to accomplish, because, manufactured in different factories, their assembly was carried out in a special workshop Enigma firm where each worker was watched by a non-commissioned officer of the Abwehr. The contents of this file were cremated in June 1940, under the pressure of the enemy.
