It is 1620. We Pilgrims do not agree with the Church of England and decide to sail to America which is known as the New World. Ahead of us is a wooden cargo ship with no sails. We see a wooden mayflower carved and painted on the stern or back of the ship. I wonder what the ship is called?

Story
"You are to report to Station X at Bletchley Park, Buckinghamshire, in four days time....That is all you need to know." This was the terse telegram hundreds of young women throughout the British Isles received in the spring of 1941, as World War II raged. As they arrived at Station X, a sprawling mansion in a state of disrepair surrounded by Spartan-looking huts with little chimneys coughing out thick smoke—these young people had no idea what kind of work they were stepping into. Who had recommended them? Why had they been chosen? Most would never learn all the answers to these questions.
