World War I cryptography Codes and ciphers were used extensively in World War I . The decoding by British Naval intelligence of the Zimmermann telegram helped bring the United States into the war . Trench code s were used by field armies of most of the combatants ( Americans , British , French , German ) in World War I . Britain . British decrypting was carried out in Room 40 by the Royal Navy and in MI1 by British Military ( Army ) Intelligence . France . The French Army employed Georges Painvin , and Étienne Bazeries who came out of retirement , on German ciphers . Germany and Austria . Germany and Austria intercepted Russian radio traffic , although German success at the Battle of Tannenberg ( 1914 ) was due to interception of messages between the Russian commanders in the clear . The ADFGX and ADFGVX field ciphers were a modified polybius system with single order double columnar transposition and frequent key change , with letters optimized for Morse . It was later broken by the famous French cryptanalyst Georges Painvin . America . Herbert Yardley began as a code clerk in the State Department . After the outbreak of war he became the head of the cryptographic section of Military Intelligence Section ( MI - 8 ) and was with the American Expeditionary Force in World War I as a Signals Corps cryptologic officer in France . He later headed the Cipher Bureau , a new cryptanalysis group started in 1919 , immediately after World War I , and funded jointly by the State Department and the US Army . Some American cryptography in World War I was done at the " Riverbank Laboratory " where Elizebeth Friedman , William F . Friedman and Agnes Meyer Driscoll worked .

Saratoga National Historical Park Saratoga National Historical Park is a United States National Historical Park located in the Town of Stillwater , in eastern New York forty miles north of Albany , New York . Description . The park preserves the site of the Battles of Saratoga , the first significant American military victory of the American Revolutionary War . Here in 1777 , American forces met , defeated , and forced a major British army to surrender , an event which led France to recognize the independence of the United States , and enter the war as a decisive military ally of the struggling Americans . First authorized as a New York state historic preserve in 1927 on the sesquicentennial of the Battles , the Battlefield was made part of the National Park System in 1938 when Saratoga National Historical Park was authorized by the United States Congress . The Visitors Center offers a 20 - minute orientation film , fiber - optic light map , timeline and artifact displays . A brochure is available for a self - guided tour of sites in the four - square mile Battlefield in Stillwater .

Her account of the travails of those around her , her keen insight into the personalities of the principal officers of both the British and American armies and her devotion to her husband in peril have led some commentators to name her as the first woman war correspondent . The Marshall House was bombarded by the Americans who supposed it an enemy headquarters . Within are conserved cannon balls and other reminders of the ordeal suffered by those who took refuge there . The Marshall House is the sole structure in the battles area surviving . The property is privately owned .

Admiral Nelson ' s HMS " Victory " , leading the weather column of the British fleet , broke the French line just astern of " Bucentaure " and just ahead of " Redoutable " .

After three hours of fighting , she surrendered to Captain James Atcherly of the Marines from HMS " Conqueror . Villeneuve is supposed to have asked to whom he was surrendering . On being told it was Captain Pellew , he replied , ' There is no shame in surrendering to the gallant Sir Edward Pellew . ' When he was informed that the Conqueror ' s captain ( Israel Pellew ) was Sir Edward ' s brother , he said , ' England is fortunate to have two such brothers . ' In the following days , " Bucentaure ' s " crew rose up against the British prize crew , and recaptured the ship . However , she was wrecked in the gale - force storm of 23 October 1805 .
