Coded Message
Simple - it is a recipe for bbq pigeon drumsticks. Not much good now though.

Lost pigeon coded message remains unbroken. The powers that be are calling for help from any remaining WWII code breakers!
"The only part of the message that has been deciphered is that of its intended destination -- that of Bomber Command, referred to as XO2, while the sender's signature at the bottom of the message read Serjeant W Stot." From: http://www.channel4.com/news/coded-c...ts-70-years-on Wonder if it is one of Keith's German pigeons...... Rich.

Code Broken
looks like the mystery is solved:
Sounds like the Boffins were over thinking the code, it is simple acronyms. Letter from the code breaker does not copy well, but can be read here: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-12-1...n-code/4432652 Rich.

Sometimes you make stuff up ....
.... and sometimes it it just far too convincing to be far from the truth.
Impressive work
