LINK Gay Icon Alan Turing's Face Is Now on a New £50 Note in United Kingdom
For those who don't know Alan Turing developed the first modern computer, in order to defeat the Nazi Enigma code, which he did. It allowed the British to hold off the Germans in WWII, long enough for/until the U.S. joined the war effort. In short, WWII (most likely) would have been lost without him.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.A true hero getting recognition by being on the 50 pound note. The article fails to reveal that Alan Turing took his own life after undergoing barbaric "chemical castration".
