I am very hapy

I get it very quickly

without you I could not find these books

first because they do not know, in France, to write such books Secondly they would not know we do'nt discover because it has no library as smart and as rich as the vôtres.et This is where the role you play is also essential

I just completed Rear Admiral Morison's Volume X of his remarkable series "The History of United States Naval Operations in World War II," "The Atlantic Battle Won." For all subsequent scholarship that has transpired since the initial publication of this volume, one must notice not a single reference to "ULTRA." The Battle for the Atlantic was won in no small measure by the decyphering of the naval "ENIGMA" Cypher at Bletchly Park that finally turned the tide against the U-Boat menace in the late-spring of 1943.

I do not fault Admiral Morison for this oversight. . .the revelations about "ULTRA" were not made public by the British government until thirty-some-odd years later. So, Morison was left with the material available, and still produced a work that remains in the forefront of books on this most critical of battles in this most devestating of wars.
