Ruth Bourne

Ruth June Bourne (née Henry; born 1926) was one of the Women of Bletchley Park who was recruited to help win World War II against the Axis Powers from 1939–1945. The Women of Bletchley Park were a secret team put together by the British government who were made to sign a Secrets Act confirming that they would not tell anyone about their work there. During her time at Bletchley, Ruth Bourne's job was not only to work on decrypting the German code system, but also to be a bombe operator. She was one of the Women's Royal Naval Service (WRENs) responsible for dismantling the bombes wire by wire after the war ended in 1945. Provided by Wikipedia
