They don't like Rumsfeld, one can only imagine
what they would have made of Churchill as First Sea Lord.

Churchill never served in the navy (he was an army man).
First Sea Lord was always an Admiral.

Churchill was the civilian head of the Royal Navy at the beginning of both World War I and World War II. And he had the coolest job title in the world, First Lord of the Admiralty.
