 | | Rejewski was certainly a cryptanalyst, but in doing cryptanalysis he was also a cryptographer since he was doing something cryptographic, ie, cryptanalysis. |
 | | It would not be unreasonable to characterize Rejewski's early 1930s conceptual breakthrough as the single most valuable contribution by an individual to the winning of WWII by the Allies. |
 | | Of course, if this is a common evaluation of Rejewski's contribution, then it might be good to include a sentence like this, perhaps as a quote from a historian; otherwise I think we'd do well to leave it out. |
