Planning the D Day Landings

I believe my mother, Joan, worked in the Ministry of Supply in London.
She was selected to take the shorthand notes for the planning meetings for the D Day landings because she was the fastest and most accurate stenographer around.
Joan did not know the names of all the Generals and others round the table, so she gave them all nicknames and added their titles to a post script at the end.
I always wondered what might have happened had she made any errors in her work.
I also wonder what she called all the famous people at those meetings; I guess the notes are in a vault somewhere.
