60 years since the end of the war

I like Churchill although he buggered up WWI.... he kept moral up in Britain during WWII with many superb speeches.

His speeches during the London V2 bombardments are indeed legendary. however, i don't see him as anything other than a good oralist.

He hade a great character and being a great "oralist" probably stopped Britain from great panic.

No, i don't blame churchill for that. I don't even blame FDR and his poor character, even though he was terminally ill when he signed the final papers. But after the Iron Curtain fell, things could've been changed. But no, i'm blaming Churchill for not being a better strategist.

Indeed but we seem to have forgotten the great anti German plans that had been put in place should the Nazis ever invade,they where genius.

Yes they were great plans... but there is great scepticism of whether they would have stopped the Nazis

That's true. But it would've been the same if someone with a better strategic mind was in his place and he was writing the speeches.

no they wouldnt have stoped them but they would have showed that we where willing to fight in every village,in every street from every rooftop

Yeah that is true...

I liked the fact that the were specially training people to protect the home front

Hell if someone tried to just walk thru the streets in most of the cities in texas they might be in for one hell of a fight. We have guns like the french have reasons to surrender....they are just lying all over the place.
