Charlotte Betty Webb
Charlotte 'Betty' Webb MBE was a distinguished codebreaker during World War II, who played a crucial role at Bletchley Park, deciphering enemy communications. Born in 1922, she joined the Auxiliary Territorial Service at the age of 18 and quickly became an integral part of the wartime effort, eventually working at the Pentagon to assist with Japanese codes. Webb was one of the last surviving Bletchley codebreakers and was awarded France's Légion d'Honneur in 2021 for her contributions to the liberation of France. She was celebrated for her inspiring legacy, particularly among women in the military, and was honored with an invitation to King Charles III's coronation in 2023, shortly before her passing at the age of 101.
