#AudioMo 2018 - Day 5 - Bletchley Park Veteran Jimmy Thirsk

Today I had the sad news that Bletchley Park Veteran Jimmy Thirsk died at the weekend at the age of 104.

I was lucky enough to meet Jimmy a few times over the last few years and he was always as sharp as a pin. As a tribute here is an edited version of an interview I recorded with Jimmy and Dr Joel Greenberg back in 2015 at the launch of the Gordon Welshman Exhibition. Jimmy worked with Gordon in the famous Hut 6 during WW2.
