Dieppe Oui ou Non

In my opinion the raid that took place on Dieppe was both a failure and a successful mission. Why? Because as for it's intended purpose of grabbing codes and ciphers the Germans  had been using for many years it was a failure. Never did was single code book from Dieppe looked at by British intelligence  in Bletchley Park. But even though the mission goals were not met as a whole Dieppe still showed some things the Allies need to know for "Operation Overlord". A) It showed that the Germans were more heavily entrenched that the British had previously imagined. B) It show that extensive training for raids would have to be a must for future raids to be assembled C) And importantly, if not most importantly, Britain had to break the codes of the Germans for future raids otherwise the element of surprise would be lost and German defenses would be able to react quicker and more efficiently meaning more deaths. These three main reason were what caused the Dieppe raid to not be a complete  failure but a success in it's own right. In addition this raid motivated the lies of Ian Fleming and many others at Bletchley Park up to and including my Grandfather A. X. Balch.
