NEVER SURENDER.
--Not as long as they had the US of A as an ally anyway--Luck favored the Limeys in the WW2 era- the "Lend-lease" scam that FDR cooked up, the superior Radar system that give the brave RAF pilots a "head's up" when old Fat-Boy- Call Me Meyer- Herman Goring's Luftwaffe was headed for the olde white cliffs o'Dover- the great Supermarine Spitfire that could go head to head with the ME-109 and Fock-Wulf fighters, the lucky escape from Dunkirk (when the Wehrmacht stopped to regroup) and the biggest coup discovering the German enigma code from a captured U-Boat the Kreigsmarine considered to have been sunk- the sequestered code breakers could read every German message after that-- Old fat Winnie with his cigars and his ever present glass of whiskey was the right man for the job back in those dark and dangerous days, when Germany under the maniac leader could have taken all of Europe- 1940-- only when Hitler went against his General Staff's advice and decided to attack Russia and have a two-front war- did the whells start to come off for Germany-IMO. But as the sage once so wisely said- "A prophet is without honor (or honour for the Limeys) in his home country" so right after the war ended, Winnie was out of a job-- as Gen. Patton was often fond of saying-- "All fame is fleeting"!!
