In 1942, British engineers solved one of the deadliest problems of the entire Atlantic war — not with a bigger bomb, a faster aircraft, or a more powerful radar. They solved it by switching off a light.
German U-boats had cracked the British radar system. They could hear Allied aircraft coming before they could be spotted. They dived. They survived. And Allied shipping kept sinking.
Then a retired Wing Commander named Humphrey Leigh changed everything with a searchlight, a switch, and one of the most elegant tactical deceptions in military history.
This is the story of the Leigh Light — the device that turned the Bay of Biscay into a graveyard for German submarines, and how a simple idea defeated a sophisticated defence by exploiting the one thing no engineer could fix.
Human biology.
