Jonathan Carter of Weymouth Mr Carter, who is Chief Engineer Stealth at Atlas Elektronik UK, is the leading expert on ocean-acoustic environment used by the Royal Navy, having worked in the field for 35 years. He received the MBE for services to Naval Operational Effectiveness. Mr Carter first learned of the news whilst at work and didn t quite believe he was to receive the MBE - almost deleting the official email.
