Episode 113: "Mad" Jack Churchill:

Send us a text

This week we are taking a more historical look at a person who seem to be super human rather than just human.

Jack Churchill was not born a war hero but it didn't take long for him to get that title when he finally join the military. During WW2 troops were given machine guns, rifles, bombs and all manner of weapons to fight against the nazis, but that was not Jack's style.

Mad was added to Jack's name due to the fact he would go into battle with nothing more than a broadsword and long bow. Oh yeah, and he played the bagpipes while going into battle.

What a guy.
