Now here is an enigma, what went on in WWII at Shingle Street that we have all heard rumour of what happened but didn't really exist. So if there were all these closed notices on Shingle Street why didn't things exist, under John Major's leadership he released these papers during his tenure as PM and nothing untoward apparently occurred. So why the closed notices in the National Archives.

Bawdsey being nearby obviously had nothing to do with it.....mmmmmhmm

I have a version on Shingle Street which I believe is right. I cannot discuss it in public. Bawsey had nothing to do with it and its more a question of Churchill and National Pride than anything sinister

This happened well over 60 years ago, papers have been released under PM Major's leadership and nothing untoward was reported, not that I believe them, so what can they do, lock you up under the Official Secrets Act. I don't think they can, if they were then they DO HAVE SOMETHING TO HIDE, think about that! smile.gif
