1047:"Jack Malcolm Thorpe Fleming Churchill graduated from Sandhurst Military Academy in 1926 and joined the storied Manchester Regiment of the British Army. He spent his first few years in the army riding his motorcycle across the entire Indian subcontinent (both the paved and the unpaved paths) just for the hell of it and learning to play the bagpipes despite the fact that he was about as Scottish as Shaka Zulu. After about ten years of doing crazy shit in the army, Jack Churchill retired. In his time off he worked as a newspaper editor, a professional male model and a movie extra, all the while honing his skill at archery and bagpiping on the side. He even represented England in the Archery World Championships in 1939. But guys like Jack Churchill aren't satisfied just by being a bizarre mesh of Robin Hood and Derek Zoolander, so he re-enlisted. And in the early months of 1940, he had his opportunity to prove himself as a distinguished, if not slightly eccentric, officer of the British Army.
2139:, "Alec Fleming and Elinor Elizabeth (Bell) had four children, the eldest of whom was called Alec Thorpe, who was born and died in Ceylon in 1905. John Malcolm Thorpe, the next child, was born in Colombo in 1906, and was always called Jack. Thomas Bell Lindsay was the second surviving child and was born in 1907 in Dormansland, Surrey (while his parents were on leave in England); and Robert Alec Farquhar, nicknamed Buster, was the youngest child and was born in 1911 in Hong Kong." So now I see why the confusion -- one surviving child in Ceylon, one in Surrey, one in Hong Kong.

When the assault ramp swung open, he fearlessly waded through knee-deep water out at the head of his men, with his trusty blade lofted high in the air, screaming "COOMMAAAAAAANNNNDOOOO!!!!!" at the top of his lungs. Two hours later, British High Command received a telegram from the front:

Churchill was like, "screw that". In the middle of the night, he had his men charge the town from all sides, screaming "COOMMAAANNNNDOOO!!!" as loud as possible. The Germans were confused and surprised, and mounted a futile resistance. The 50 men of Number 2 Commando took 136 prisoners and inflicted an unknown number of casualties.

Churchill was, historically, an icon of his gender as Amelia Earhart was of hers. Historical topics should be spoken of in their unique historical terms, and not be subject to modern euphemisms or revisionist thought. If it were any model of the past few decades, I would be in complete agreement.

these medias work and how inaccurate they are,(a student intentionally and persistently added a hoax on a person's article that died during that time and eventually the media followed what was written on

Though Jack
Churchill might have thought that he was through with war, he was not. After World War II ended, he qualified as a parachutist, transferred to the Seaforth Highlanders, and later ended up in Palestine as second-in-command of 1st Battalion, the Highland Light Infantry. And it was there, in

When his training was completed, he took part in the daring amphibious assault on the German base in Vaagso, Norway. As the leader of Number 2 Commando, Churchill was responsible for taking out the artillery batteries on Maaloy Island. As the landing craft raced towards their LZ, he belted out "The

He had been shipped to France to assist the rest of the

However, Jack's adventures weren't finished yet. At the age of 40, he qualified as a paratrooper and completed jump school. He went on to serve in action in Palestine, where he earned fame for defending a Jewish medical convoy from an Arab ambush - radioing for backup and providing small-arms fire

But it would take more than some concentration camp to hold Jack Churchill. One night in September of 1944, he escaped the camp by crawling under barbed wire and through and abandoned drain. He was later recaptured while walking towards the Baltic coast and shipped off to a prison camp in Austria.

As a photographer I have to say the landing photos with sword in hand is very dodgy looking. While I have no reason to dispute he did in fact carry a sword, I'm pretty sure that this photo isn't real. The highlights on the blade are way to blown out relative to the shadows on the figure holding it.

Well Jack Churchill had some ideas. He not only refused to give ground, but he launched small-scale guerrilla raids and surprise attacks on German positions and supply depots. Riding his trusty motorcycle and armed only with a bow and arrow and a Scottish broadsword, he would assault the Germans,

I appreciate the desire to maintain gender neutral language as a whole, in the 1930's to be a male model was an exception. As such, it warrants inclusion. In modern parlance, model means many things; it transcends gender and is quite inclusive. Would we deny Amelia Earhart her place as a female

I disagree, obituaries from national media organisations tend to be as reliable as they come. Logically, the fact that the Telegraph suggests that Churchill was born in the UK, against the prevailing opinion that he was born in Hong Kong, while also going in depth to suggest he was born here while

While this is irrelevant, I feel it must be said that all this medieval weaponry must have had quite a psychological effect on the troops under his command. Especially given that he survived, it would have boosted their courage to fight off the Germans. He was a genius at morale raising, I'll bet.

This man was the Leeroy Jenkins of WW2. Because he rushed into battle "wid a sawd, y'all" dosn't somehow make him a good soldier, it makes him one lucky son of a bitch that he managed to not get killed. His idiocy (sorry, badassery to some of you) didn't help him or save him, it was sheer luck. As

During the British landing at Salerno, he won another award for bravery. His squad was charged with taking out an artillery battery that was pinning down a nearby British force, despite the fact that the town of Piegoletti (where the guns were based) was garrisoned by a force much larger than his

Despite the way that article is worded, I suspect he actually simply reverted to his substantive rank (as happened to most officers who continued to serve after the war as the army contracted to peacetime size). It is also usual to grant a retiring officer the highest rank held in wartime, would

I meant that 'Jack' being used as a name in itself is a modern concept. 'John' has always been a very popular name. If the man's name was John Churchill, fine, but the article should reflect that. I would be surprised if 'Jack Churchill' was the name he was born with - it would be like the Prime

I love eccentric badasses, and "Mad Jack" Churchill (also known as "Fighting Jack" Churchill) is about as eccentric as they come. It takes a special kind of badass to carry a bow and arrow to a gunfight, to scream at the top of his lungs in the face of oncoming machine gun fire, and to capture a

But that wasn't even the most balls out thing Mad Jack did on that campaign. One night, he single-handedly took forty-two German prisoners and captured a mortar crew using only his broadsword. He simply took one patrolling guard as a human shield and went around from sentry post to sentry post,
1065:
After Dunkirk, Jack returned to England and promptly signed up to be a member of a new organization known as the Commandos. He wasn't sure what a Commando was, but he was excited about the prospect of kicking German asses, so he couldn't resist. He was promptly put through the grueling training

The escape of Churchill from the group,just few days before it was liberated,is perfectly explained in Jimmy James' book "Moonless Night":he escaped in the way to Niederdorf,not there, worked his way 150 milles,found an amerincan tanks column, identified himself as british officer doing his best

This too would prove to be insufficient to hold Jack, however. When the camp lighting failed one night in April 1945, he dropped his shovel and walked away from work detail. He marched 150 miles through the treacherous terrain of the Alps, "liberating" vegetables he found along the way, until
