Margaret Francis, Veteran Of Bletchley Park, talking about her time there.
3 months ago
On Sept 6th 2009, Bletchley Park, home to the team that cracked the Enigma Code during the 2nd World War, celebrated 75 years since its formation and the centre for code breaking.
The weekend hosted a reunion of 150 or so veterans, most of them well over 85 years old, returning to meet up with friends, some of whom they hadn't seen for nearly 70 years, and to swap stories.
Amplified were there to hear some of the stories - this is the first of a couple of videos, but there are more audio recordings on AudioBoo audioboo.fm/search?q=bpark70 and photos on Flickr - flickr.com/search/?q=bpark70&w=all
