MBE for Bletchley codebreaker
It's been an awfully long wait.
Quote:
A Bletchley Park codebreaker who has been appointed MBE in the New Year Honours said he still hopes his whole team will one day be recognised.
Raymond "Jerry" Roberts, 92, receives the honour for services to the WWII decryption centre and to codebreaking.
Mr Roberts, of Hampshire, was among four founder members of the Testery section tasked with breaking the German High Command's Tunny code.
The decrypts are credited with helping shorten the war by at least two years.
