Brilliant, but firstly Allan Turing was more than a key codebreaker he was the codebreaker who found a solution to solving the Enigma codes.
Secondly, although Operation Ruthless didn't go ahead, British Intelligence used the basis of the idea on more than one occasion for example nabbing a German U-boat, getting below before the captain could skuttle it, retrieving the Enigma codes and then blowing it up so the crew thought they went down with the sub. |

QUOTE On 25 August 2008 Bletchley Park will be celebrating the Centenary of the Birth of Ian Fleming and his famous wartime connection with Bletchley Park with a whole host of Spy and Double Agent Activities, Talks and Exhibitions. On that day, a certain other person will be celebrating his 78th birthday too. |
