    Came across this on the RTE Documentary on One and thought that some around these parts might enjoy -

    There are few individuals it can be said altered the course of World War Two on their own - but one was a Dublin librarian. And he did it, not on the battlefields of France or Japan but, in a room in McKee Barracks on Dublin's North Circular Road.

    One of our own. Responsible for breaking the Görtz Cipher. Damn fine story and listen. Enjoy.
