BRITAIN-ROYALS-HISTORY-WWII
Britain's Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge (R) talks with Bletchley veteran Lady Marion Body (L) who knew her grandmother, Valerie Glassborow, who also worked at the facility during a visit to Bletchley Park in Milton Keynes, north of London, on June 18, 2014 to mark the completion of the year-long restoration project, which has restored the site to its World War II appearance. Bletchley Park was the central site of Britain's Government Code and Cypher School (GC&CS), which during WWII decrypted, translated and analysed encrypted messages sent by the Navy, Army and Air Forces of Germany for vital intelligence. It is thought that the work done by codebreakers at Bletchley Park significantly shortened the duration of the Second World War by as much as years. AFP PHOTO / POOL / EDDIE MULHOLLAND
