About Camp
From a farm in Indiana to the Nation's Capital as Cryptographer-in-Charge, she led the way in solving one code after another. WW I German codes, prohibition codes; prohibition kingpins, mobsters and gangsters, drug lords, all fell before her uncanny ability to crack even the cleverest codes and ciphers. Languages were no barrier. She broke the entire South American Clandestine radio network and three WWII German Enigma codes, not with a computerized machine, but with a paper and pencil.
