Who were Enigma codebreakers?

Despite the fact that their work significantly contributed to changing the course of the Second World War, they were never properly appreciated on an international scale. The success of breaking Enigma was ascribed to British cryptologists. This is the image that is perpetuated around the world. Only recently have the first suggestions been made in the West that Polish contribution should also be recognised. Fortunately, in our country the knowledge of the subject is becoming more and more widespread. Marian Rejewski, Henryk Zygalski and Jerzy Różycki are examples of brilliant minds. The cryptologists always emphasised the cooperative nature of their unusual work. Who were these heroes?
