Sir Winston Churchill Speech - We shall fight them on the be

Freedom. In about six weeks time men and women around the country will wear a poppy to commemorate the millions of people who died to defend this country and maintain its freedom.

Now I could go on a whole philosophical and spiritual rant about whether it was really freedom they were fighting for. However, on this occasion I want to highlight how events of great adversity and warfare bring out some of the best in people who at least on the surface are committed to the principles of freedom. This is seen in no greater figure than the leader of Britain during the last World War.

This post is put up then in tribute to those who from their heart fought so bravely to uphold that ideal of freedom. Let us hope today that people will still be ready when it comes to the opponents of freedom to fight them on the beaches … and never surrender. Enjoy.
