Ringstellung-1

A disassembled Ringstellung, or keyed rotor from the German encryption machine, "Enigma." The machine had a number of sophisticated features that made it very difficult to intercept. Eventually, the Allies (Poles, English, Americans and others) managed to crack the Enigma code and help to win the war. From the German Occupation of Norway, 1940-1945
