Join The World Affairs Council and the National WWII Museum on a journey into the intelligence and espionage of World War II. Traveling from London to the Midlands, examine intelligence collecting from the highest level to the individual spy. Bletchley Park, the United Kingdom’s center for decryption and code breaking, is the centerpiece of this tour. Pay tribute to the women of the Y-Stations who intercepted and transcribed German messages sent via Morse code. Go underground at the Churchill War Rooms and visit the famous Map Room. Along the way, hear the tales of field operatives, spies, and double agents who played significant roles in the defeat of Nazi Germany.
