The Nerds Who Saved America: How Cryptography Outmatched Firepower 🧠

This is not a movie about brave pilots. This is the pure, brutal truth about the greatest victory that was stolen in silence. After the shock of Pearl Harbor, Imperial Japan was confident: their invincible armada would wipe us out. No one knew what to do. But in a stuffy, smoke-filled room in Hawaii, a group of quirky, obsessed guys, led by one outcast genius, fought the Japanese fleet with a pencil and paper. This is the story of how they gnawed at the devilishly complex JN-25b code, how a genius deception involving a "kettle" saved our fleet, and how one "accountant" on the admiral's bridge took the riskiest, yet most calculated, step in history. Find out how intuition and statistics gave us just thirty minutes to strike the blow that changed the entire Second World War. This is the story of how knowledge pulverized power. 👇Click and Subscribe to me. https://www.youtube.com/@WW2ChroniclesCouragePodcast?sub_confirmation=1 🤝 Thanks for support!
