#1 Those were an absolutely fascinating group of young people. Many of the rooms remain as they were at war's end, a virtual time machine. When all of this unpleasantness finally ends, I highly recommend a visit.

#2 Churchill's quarters and the other underground war rooms at the Imperial War Museum in Whitehall are also fascinating.

#4 Yes, Whitehall. Another virtual time machine, with maps, phones, cots, just as they were. It was said that Churchill had planned to die there, had the Nazis taken London.

#6 I worked "Behind the Green Door" in Omaha and elsewhere. It isn't as exciting as the movies make it, but da$$, do I miss it!
