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. ;-)

Greetings Spin:

Have you just joined this thread?? Go back to the beginning and you
will see that it was started by someone attacking and making fun of,
and insulting Canadians. (Also having nothing to do with shortwave
radio.)
Amost everything in this thread since then has been attacks back
and forth by Canadians and Americans. Particularily by member "dxAce"
insulting Canadians, and calling Canadians and Canada dirty names and
other insults.
Nobody in this thread has been discussing shortwave radios,
although we are all members of the rec.radio.shortwave group.
If you are interested in ending these type of threads, then
perhaps you should do something about people who insult others just
because they are a different nationality.
I have spent my time trying to end the name calling back and
forth. I certainly didn't start it.
There are people here who seem to have a hatred for Canada and
Canadians. Check the thread history. It goes back quite a way now.
You might also think of going after the person who started the
insults of Canada and Canadians. It's because of him that this whole
thing started.

With respect, Cato
