There are some old buildings in Canada with those pneumatic tubes, like the hospital I was born in I doubt they are in use Just too expensive to scrap I' guess

These videos are great There are places where you can tell history happened, and this is one of them They don’t need multimedia experiences to spoon feed information, just some basic knowledge and a sense of imagination to visualise the momentous decisions made, and Churchill’s presence Priceless

My aunt, Miss Winifred Tindall , was one of secretaries that sat at the big tablebr She had a seat on the plane to Canada should the worst happen br Three parts of Operation Fortidude were named after the secretaries that took notes for Winniebr It was a proud moment seeing her cavas and steel chair to the left of Winstons br This was where my aunt “Did Her Bit “

Churchill wanted to be on the beaches and couldn't be dissuaded, except the King said if you go I'll have to go and Churchill couldn't risk that

There it was decided what should happen at Dunkirk After the war, a BBC team visited General Montgomery "Monty" at his home for an interview Among other things the reporter asked General Montgomery: "Monty, are you still contemplating that fabulous victory over Nazi Germany?" General Montgomery answered: No Actually, no What I am lately thinking about is that why was my mother so cruel to me during my school days?

The russians did nearly all the fighting and lost most soldiers hence this room has relevance

This room was useless for the most of WW2, as the British army was ideal for most of the war Not RAF though

Once the Russians won at Kursk in 1943 , the Russians were on a unstoppable march to Berlin even if D-Day never took place brWe could have just closed the war room and got out the popcorn and watched the rest

Somehow this footage gives me a sense of the massive scale of the war Maybe because of the huge maps And a fascinating look into one of the main nerve centres of that war and how it operated
