That Hard to Crack Message

From the Nov. 24, 2012, International Business Times "World War II Message Found On Dead Carrier Pigeon Puzzles Code Breakers" by Sreeja V N.

Britain's top code breakers from GCHQ service have failed to crack the code found on the dead carrier pigeon that I blogged about earlier this month and are seeking help from retired spies and the public (perhaps some from World War II are still around who migfht know how to translate it.

A man was remodeling his 17th century house and found the bones of the pigeon in his chimney with a capsule attached to its leg reading "Pigeon Service."  Then, there were 27 coded words, each with five alphabets.

Three crucial bits if information are still not known which might help to crack it:  date of the message (although at first it was believed to be from June 6, 1944, D-Day), its destination and its sender.  They do believe the pigeon was flying to Bletchley Park from France on that date.

Here's Hoping the Case Will be Solved.  --GreGen
