Extra - E39 - Gwendoline Page
August 2014
In July, as part of the Bletchley Park Presents series of
talks, four women whose diverse roles within the
Government Code & Cypher School during World War
Two give a rare insight into the inner workings of this
top secret organisation.
One of those women was WREN Gwendoline Page who
worked first in the Naval Section at Bletchley Park,
indexing U-boat signals & later on the Japanese vessels
index based in Colombo.
After her talk, at the end of a very long day, she was
still kind enough to sit down with us to tell our listeners
more about her service.
Two of Gwendoline’s books, "We Kept the Secret" and
"They Listened in Secret" are available from the
Bletchley Park Shop.
