Alans' Teddy bear

His office in Block 8

The most famous code breaker at Bletchley Park was of course Alan Turing. It was special to see his original office and some personal artifacts. Also displayed was the letter of Gordon Brown of 2009 in were the British Government finally acknowledged  that Alan was a true War Hero and that the repression and shame that was put on him as a gay man was totally unacceptable. Alan died at 42 (suicide or murder?)
