Saras Fun History Fact of the Day. * 5
    #18827192 - 09/11/13 10:38 AM (10 years, 5 months ago)

Hey guys, as some of you are aware I am going to school to be a history teacher.
As you might guess, I'm very fascinated with History and my head is full with crazy history facts.
So for some time I have been planning on making this thread, and I'm finally getting around to it.


So it's time for my first history fact of the day.

Jack Churchill was a British soldier during the second world war,
who went through the whole war going into battle only armed with a longbow and a Scottish broadsword.



During the war, "mad jack" fought his way all the way to becoming a Lieutenant colonel in the British Army.
And I'm happy to say our bad ass survived the war.
But really what a badass.

Here is a picture of Jack charging into battle with his sword. (Far right)

God kills indiscriminately and so shall we. For no creatures under God are as we are none so like him as ourselves.

If this is what I have to look forward to from "Saras Fun History Facts", then I will be here everyday to check these out! This is an awesome little piece of history. That man is absolutely amazing. I have much respect and admiration for someone to take on an army with such outdated weapons.

Quote:

...In later years, Churchill served as an instructor at the land-air warfare school in Australia, where he became a passionate devotee of the surfboard. Back in England, he was the first man to ride the River Severn’s five-foot tidal bore and designed his own board. In retirement, however, his eccentricity continued. He startled train conductors and passengers by throwing his briefcase out of the train window each day on the ride home. He later explained that he was tossing his case into his own back garden so he wouldn’t have to carry it from the station.

At least he wouldn't have to worry about his gun jamming. Guy was a total bad ass, wonder how he made it through.

I wonder what his kill count was.

God lay his finger at the Mouth of the Serpent

A pleasing land of drowsy head it was,
Of dreams that wave before the half-shut eye,
And of gay castles in the clouds that pass,
For ever flushing round a summer sky. -Castle of Indolence

I'd hate to be fighting along side him
expecting him to cover my ass with a long bow
