right but at the end of U-571 in the credits, I thought it posted 3 captures of enigma machines. I don't recall the names of the ships, but were none of them american ?

The allies knew about the enigma machine. In fact, there had been some intelligence from the Poles that described the machine. The Brits at Blechley Park had, in the process of breaking the code, built an enigma machine that looked almost identical to the real thing. The first enigma machine recovered was by some British sailors from a German sub. They had just stumbled upon it. They didn't go looking for it. -----Original Message----- From: Scott Raley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 03, 2002 10:06 AM To: CF-Community Subject: RE: USS Dolphin What problems are there with U-571. I wasn't aware of the enigma coding machines until I watched that movie, so I have nothing to compare it to, unlike pearl harbor where there are several movies out there with their version of pearl harbor. Have you seen "tora, tora, tora!" ? part of their storyline is about the 2 guys just like in pearl harbor. Although I think Tora,Tora, Tora is more accurate then pearl harbor.

It annoys me because most people will read or watch it and believe it to be true. Like the movie "Pearl Harbor". The other reason it annoys me is it tends to give credit to fictitious characters while ignoring the real men that were there. Like the movie "U-571". -----Original Message----- From: Scott Raley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 03, 2002 9:54 AM To: CF-Community Subject: RE: USS Dolphin thats why I wanted to know the accuracy. Since the holiday draws near here, I've noticed there have been alot of movies on about WWII and other wars in US history. The WWII have caught my attention, I think its interesting to see the pieces of WWII the movies agree on and where they add their own "intrigue" (if you will) to the storyline. ______________________________________________________________________ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
