Close to the beginning of the film the word "hiring" is used, when Alan is taking his induction. There is no way that this word would have been used at that time in that context. The more appropriate word at that time would have been "recruiting". The word "fired" is used when Alan and Commander Denniston argue about the Christopher's usefulness, midway through the film, the word used circa 1940 would have been "dismissed". The current phenomenon of using (Amercian) English, as opposed to (English) English in the UK is only a modern day trend. In the 1940s and 50s hiring and firing was not in the English vocabulary, at least in regards to employment.
