Action This Day was a 1941 memorandum sent to Winston Churchill personally, as the Bletchley Park codebreaking establishment was short of staff in some critical areas. Their requirements were small, but as a small (and secret) organisation their management did not have priority. Four senior heads of sections (Huts) and their deputies wrote to Churchill, who had visited BP on 6 September 1941, where he made a speech saying he appreciated their work.

The memo was signed by Alan Turing and Hugh Alexander (head and deputy head of Hut 8); and Gordon Welchman, and Stuart Milner-Barry (head and deputy head of Hut 6).
