Interesting obituary in today's (12 March 2025) of Patricia Rosemary Buxton, born 1921 who attended C.H. Hertford (as Pat King) in the 1930s. She was only 103 and appears to have lived a full and satisfying life, including a period in SOE. I have long suspected that many more Old Blues served at Bletchley Park and in SOE than has ever been acknowledged.
