All three networks ran it
We only had NBC and CBS...ABC came in 1969 to jackson Miss
I remember my dad thought Churchill was the man of the century without question
Even though he presided over the disintegration of Britannia
He ain't perfect but you can't say he wasn't inspiring and determined< And empathetic
He ran his share of WWII alone some and at an old age while under relentless air attacks
And he was after all one of us by blood too
Don't forget
If he were a king he'd be up there with Alfred and Edward I and Henry VII in English history
I love him ..
I've read much on him and a good bit by him....he was prolific....his History of the English Speaking People's and The American Civil War are excellent
I knew his niece Lady Sarah in passing in Jamaica where she was often ensconced in Bogue Hill a few miles southwest of Montego Bay in a great home overlooking the cobalt blue Caribbean....kah Rib E An ....not Cuh Ribb ian She was in the same social circle as my then paramour whose family owned Red Stripe beer ...Desnoes and Geddes.....a tall attractive obviously Churchill lady who also was a Vanderbilt heir down the line...very entertaining lady who adored my petite blonde Jamaican love at the time though she viewed me quite accurately as a bit rough but southern which she liked Anyhow....don't bombard me with Gallipoli....Churchill knew damn well he and Kitch screwed that pooch and he never ever till his last breath lived down the guilt unlike Kitchener and Hamilton
My favorite ....he's feeling the weight of all Britain and her commonwealths and by extension free Europe on his shoulders prior to our involvement.
