You're right that he put himself in harm's way cuhulin. He also
fought during the Second Boer War and at the Battle of Omdurman. But I
think that ve3 is also right about him having at least one, and maybe
two doubles during WW II. That what a lot of people say. But I don't
know it for a fact.
So I think, as far as I know, that you are both correct.
Churchill was a very unique person, I think we all agree
about that. I admired him greatly while growing up. I also admired
John F. Kennedy when I was a young kid. But I don't have any
admiration for his brother, Edward "Ted" Kennedy.
I also liked Margaret Thatcher, and Ronald Reagan.
I guess I can sit back now, and watch the slings and arrows
headed my way. ;-)
