They Broke Japan's Code Three Weeks Before Midway

In the spring of 1942, Commander Joseph Rochefort and his team of codebreakers worked around the clock in a basement beneath Pearl Harbor, racing to decrypt Japanese naval communications. What they discovered would change the course of World War 2. This full length documentary tells the incredible true story of Station Hypo, the secret intelligence unit that broke the Japanese JN-25 code and predicted the Battle of Midway three weeks before it happened. Learn how Rochefort's analysts identified the target, convinced Admiral Nimitz to trust their findings despite Washington's doubts, and provided the intelligence that led to one of the most decisive naval victories in history. On June 4, 1942, American dive bombers caught four Japanese aircraft carriers by surprise and sank them in a matter of minutes, turning the tide of the Pacific War. This is the story of the unsung heroes who made that victory possible through brilliant analysis, determination, and the courage to challenge conventional thinking. Featuring detailed accounts of the codebreaking operation, the water shortage ruse that confirmed Midway as the target, and the dramatic battle that followed, this documentary honors the men whose intelligence work shaped the outcome of World War 2 in the Pacific theater.
