The Munchen was found and taken on 7 May 1941 and it was with the settings thus obtained that they became able to read the June traffic 'practically currently'.
1941年5月7日,慕尼黑号被发现并缴获了。它泄露了的谜机的设定,使艾伦这边能够实时地破译6月的通信。At last, they had a command of the day to day tactics.
终于,他们可以毫无滞后地掌握德国的当日战术了。The July settings were captured from another of the weather-reporting trawlers, the Lauenburg, on 28 June.
6月28日,他们又缴获了另外一艘气象船劳恩堡号,从而得到了7月的设定。
Meanwhile on 9 May, an accidental, but brilliantly conducted operation had taken place.
与此同时,5月9日发生了一个意外,但最终却出色地控制了,A convoy escort detected and disabled the U-110 which had attacked the convoy.
一艘护航船发现并击毁了一艘想要攻击它的U-110潜艇。In a split-second manoeuvre on the high seas, they boarded the U-boat and took intact its cipher material.
在极短的时间内,公海上进行紧急行动,他们登上潜艇,并且完整无缺地带走了所有密码资料。The lessons of 1940 had been learnt.
他们吸取了1940年的教训。The material filled some outstanding gaps, for it included 'the code-book used by the U-boats when making short-signal sighting reports', and 'the special settings used in the Navy for "officer-only” signals'.
这些资料回答了一些尚未解决的问题,包括潜艇传送侦察报告时使用的密码手册,以及海军军官专用的特殊设定。These Offizierte signals were doubly enciphered for extra security within the U-boat itself.
这些高级信号会在潜艇内进行双重加密。From the Hut 8 point of view, these were signals which, even after the day's settings had been found and the decryption process applied, remained gibberish while the other messages became German.
对8号营房来说,即使解出这些信号的当日设定,并且执行解码程序,得到的结果仍然是杂乱的。It required a second stage of attack to recover these, the innermost secrets of the U-boat operations.
这些需要双重破解,才能得到最隐秘的潜艇行动机密,Now they had what they needed to do it.
而现在他们已经有条件来做这件事了。
