We are talking campaign medals here not awards of valour and just about everyone that served in WW2 got them, for example my uncles got the Greece/Crete medal, Africa Star, Italy Star, New Zealand Defence Medal, 1939-45 Defence Medal just for showing up.

I can't see any reason other than elapsed time why the code breakers shouldn't get the same.
