You've found a mystery machine with a sticky note attached to it! Oh, there's also this picture of the machine you found.
It really gets your gears Turing.
I hear there's something Naval about it.
I'm proud to know this one. The photo is obviously of an Enigma Machine, and the first hint gives an omage to Alan Turing, the father of Computer Science. He's the one who cracked the Enigma Machine, so I found an enigma machine cracker online and entered in the information. It was quite simple, but it took me a while to realize I had to put the string together. I got kind of lost when I got just blocks of 3 back. I figured it out though!
