ABSTRACT
The 2015 edition of the biannual NSA Cryptologic History Symposium attracted over 250 participants. Interesting talks were given, among other topics about Elizabeth and William Friedman and Alan Turing. Not a part of the program but subject of many discussions was the planned new National Cryptologic Museum. An obvious goal for future symposia should be to attract more young people.
