It is sad to see the last surving member of Hut 6 pass away. They did so much to hasten the end of the European Theater War and saved countless lives. Imagine being 19 years old and participating in something as arcane as codebreaking with so much on the line. The loyalty to their work and to their nation and, by extension, the world was, and is still, notable and admirable...

Thank you, Ms. Batey and rest in well deserved peace...
