Description
Sir WINSTON CHURCHILL OM, KG, CH, PC
Born in 1874, Winston Churchill became first an army officer, then a war correspondent covering the Boer War, before entering politics as an MP in 1900. After holding the posts of Home Secretary and First Lord of the Admiralty, he served on the Western front in WWI. On 10 May 1940, King George VI appointed Churchill Prime Minister following Chamberlain’s resignation. A brilliant orator, his stirring and inspirational speeches in the dark days of 1940 and 1941 became a source of strength, not only to his country, but to the whole of the free world, as Britain stood alone against Nazi Germany.
