very Churchillian on delivering the Alexander HQ - ram the Tiger convoy right through the Med when things start to get tight in Egypt
a bit less Churchillian having the Wavell HQ lead that one attack; Winston would have insisted there be a motorized division included to absorb any needed losses, though his war didn't work the way WiF does. I bet he would have designated an Indian div, maybe a South African one.

I can't remember the exact year but I'd say it was sometime around the 6th grade (i.e., 1969-1970), when one of my classmates mention to our teacher that he saw an "old" picture of Winston Churchill holding up a peace sign. If it was the 6th grade then it would have been Mrs. Olgbee. Anyway, we were amazed ... peace sign in the 40's? We thought that was a recent invention (i.e., 1960's) of the hippies? That's when she informed us that he was flashing a "V" for victory and not a peace sign. True story. [8D]

Turn 8. Nov/Dec 1940. Axis #9. IJA Land Combat.
Wow, the axis took it on the chin this impulse. They're 3 for 3 in unfavorable results. This botched land combat by the IJA had a real chance of turning the southern flank of Chaing and his Nationalist Chinese. Not only do the Chinese Nationalist hold but they cause the destruction of three Japanese armies.
