I didn't know Churchill fought in the front line. I thought he was tucked up at night.
Churchill was not on the front line during the Second World War. However he did fight on the front line in India, Sudan, the Boer War (where he became a PW and escaped over 300 miles back to friendly forces), and of course he also fought on the Western front during the First World War.

Whom incidentally you said joined a war that wasn't our war, you said we went to the aide of Poland. We joined as Churchill warned Hitler prior if he went into Poland war would be declared. If we never then joined forces we might have lost that battle.
Churchill did not lead us into the War, in fact he continued to advocate preparing for war while the Government appeased Hitler. The government was led by Neville Chamberlain. It was Chamberlain that warned Hitler that Britain would ally to Poland if he invaded.
Churchill became Prime Minister eight months after Chamberlain declared war on Nazi Germany.
The only way we can learn from history is to know it correctly in the first place

The point I was making is that star said we went to defend the poles earlier and they should be forever grateful.
I think I am much nearer the facts than he is even being 8 months out. :wink:
