Any consideration of UK-USA collaboration during WW2 must not exclude William Stephenson and William Donovan. Stephenson was in every way Churchill's right hand man and so vital to America catching up. Camp X also must at some point be recognized for the training school it was. Stephenson was like the Priest or Minister that brought these nations into full cooperation/union. Donovan and Stephenson had North American commonality, before the war, which was invaluable to Britain in her time of need. Bletchley Park was invaluable to intelligence gathering but this intel had to serve both the obvious and the secret war effort. To be useful it had to be directed to end users. Bletchley Park was a servant under Churchill's command. Stevenson was the true bridge between the final decision makers Churchill and FDR. Collaboration at Bletchley depended on material collaboration, at great risk to FDR, coming from the USA. If America, at the time of neutrality, had not been able to move strategic goods purely at the will of FDR, and secretly, then no basis would have existed for further cooperation in intelligence.
A very interesting program.
Amazing to see such a successful collaboration between 2 countries that had been at war a century before.
Great insight, well done! Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it Dan!
Fascinating to be able to put faces to voices I know from the podcast.
It is always helpful to be able to do that for sure!
Our virtual events are a good place to see members of the team you'll have heard on the podcast.
Wonderfully and clearly presented...thank you!
Thanks Joseph, this project has been a long time in the making so we are glad you enjoyed it!
The background music is way too intrusive.
Sorry, it was the radio!!!

The British were not more advanced than us, Our President wanted them to think they were so they wouldn't feel bad asking us for help!
The Brits were far ahead of the US.
I hear you, Brother
