Check the behind the scenes section, the revision history and discussion page for additional comments on this article's title.
Reginald V. Jones was a physicist who worked closely with the British Army.
He was tasked with examining the "Ironside" machines. Jones met with Edwin Bracewell, their purported creator, and wrote a memo addressed to Winston Churchill and general Ismay. In the memo, Jones wrote that Bracewell's Ironsides were "every bit impressive as we have been led to believe", and went on to state that he saw no reason not to begin mass production of the machines.
