WBritain 1/32 Winston Churchill WW2 (17235)
King George VI appointed Churchill as Prime Minister on 10 May 1940.To many people in
Britain, Churchill's stand against Nazism and all it stood for, summarized why the war was
being fought. His speeches have become part of legend .. be it "fight on the beaches" or
his salute to the men from Fighter Command who took on the Luftwaffe in the Battle of
Britain. Churchill remained in London during the Blitz and regularly visited areas bombed
out by the Luftwaffe. To the people of London, he was one of them and a man who could have
removed himself from dangers of German bombers, but refused to -- staying in bombed out
London along with those who suffered.He also took a role in military issues. It was he who
was political force behind the creation of commando units that would be sent in to disrupt
the German military. He was also scathing about military defeats, call the defeat of Tobruk
a "disgrace."
