Скачать или смотреть How “Secret” Codebreaking Unit in Hawaii Saw the Japanese Coming Weeks Before Midway (Station HYPO)

The victory at Midway didn’t begin on the ocean — it began in a small, hidden room in Hawaii.
Here, the codebreakers of Station HYPO, led by Commander Joseph Rochefort, cracked Japan’s most secret naval cipher: JN-25.

Against bureaucratic resistance, limited support, and near-impossible odds, they uncovered the truth — Japan was planning a surprise strike on Midway Island. Their intelligence gave Admiral Nimitz the power to set a trap that changed the course of the Pacific War.

This is the story of how a handful of brilliant minds, working in silence and secrecy, helped sink four Japanese carriers and turned the tide of World War II — before a single American plane took off.
