1943 British Petty Officer hears a radio message from a 2025 American
ship about to be destroyed and hilarity ensues.

My reactions: They would have executed her as a spy if they'd caught
her talking to him. Her plan for how to open communication with him
makes no sense. She could have just left him a letter telling him
everything she knew and left the rest to him. Not only would it be more
likely to work, she wouldn't be hung as a spy for being caught using a
radio transmitter. On the other hand the connection between the
destruction of his ship and them even being able to communicate makes
excellent sense.

References say 2023, I suppose we'll find out... and
I imagine that WRNS officers on secret radio war work
weren't allowed to send letters willy nilly, either.
A censor would read first.

So apparently it's about Bletchley Park... but if you
weren't at Bletchley Park, then you didn't know about
Bletchley Park?

Depositing a letter to be delivered 80 years later is hardly
willy-nilly. She actually sends him a whole package containing much
more dangerous contents than just a letter containing incomprehensible
science fiction about a ship being attacked by vampires in 2023.

I suspect the Y station ladies were actually trained at Bletchley Park
but forbidden to talk about it.
