  Geheimfernschreiber   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
While the Enigma machine was generally used by field units, the Geheimfernschreiber was used by Luftwaffe headquarters units which could support the heavy machine, teletypewriter and attendant fixed circuits.
The Geheimfernschreiber had ten pinwheels, which were stepped in a complex, nonlinear way based on their positions from various delays in the past, but in such a way they could never stall.
Each of the five plaintext bits was then XORed with the XOR sum of 3 taps from the pinwheels, and then cyclically adjacent pairs of plaintext bits were swapped or not, according to XOR sums of three (different) output bits.

 M-209
The M-209 was about the size of a lunchbox, and represented a brilliant achievement for pre-electronic technology.
It used a wheel scheme similar to that of a telecipher machine, such as the Lorenz cypher and the Geheimfernschreiber.
From the code clerk's point of view, the M-209 was simple to operate.

 Geheimfernschreiber - free-definition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
This produces a much more complex cypher than the Lorenz machine, and also means that the Geheimfernschreiber is not just a pseudorandom number generator-and-XOR cipher.
For example, if a cipher clerk erred and sent two different messages using exactly the same settings — a depth of two in Bletchley jargon — this could be detected statistically but was not immediately and trivially solvable as it would be with Lorenz.
Partly this was because the Geheimfernschreiber was by far the most complex cypher of the three, but also because the Luftwaffe very often retransmitted STURGEON messages using easier to attack (or already broken) cyphers - thus attacking STURGEON was not the most economical way to get the plaintext!

 Endpaper: More reflections on World War II
As a result, I was sent to the former German Gardaermon Airbase north of Oslo (today an international airport) to question the Luftwaffe personnel about German cryptographic systems and operations.
I was also taught how to operate the German top secret Geheimfernschreiber (Secret Teletype Enciphering Machine), the most secret enciphering machine used for communications between Hitler and the German High Command in the field.
Having been given the appropriate instructions, I brought one of the machines back to London where I wrote the English operating instructions as well as a report on the questioning of the Luftwaffe personnel about German cryptographic operations.

However, in addition to ENIGMA, the Germans had another cipher that was employed for their ultra-top-secret communications.
This cipher, which was vastly more complicated that ENIGMA, was generated by a machine called a Geheimfernschreiber (secret telegraph), which the allies referred to as the "Fish.
In January 1943, along with a number of colleagues, Turing began to construct an electronic machine to decode the Geheimfernschreiber cipher.

The most important was a teletype based machine built by Lorenz Electric, the SZ-40 (and later SZ-42) Schlusselzusatz (meaning, more or less, 'auxiliary key').
Another, different, teletype cypher machine was designed and built by Siemens & Halske, the T-52 Geheimfernschreiber (meaning, 'secret teleprinter').
Early versions of the Siemens machine (the T-52a and T-52b) were used to send signals between Germany and Norway over a cable running through Sweden.
