"I have a couple London newspapers from the last week in May of ‘44. They have crossword puzzles. Lotsa names...Maybe I’ll post them on this site. Wonder if they have “secrets”."

There's actually an interesting anecdote about just that...

thanks Jo...I have 3 crosswords...two have the answers from the day before.

One has Dover which I think was a port and radar station.

The word acacia is repeated in two puzzles.

I'm not sure the clue is in the answer because I can also see possibilities in the clues.
