Winston Churchill Fight Them On The Beaches Speech
1940sWinston Churchill Fight Them On The Beaches Speech
In June 1940 German forces occupied virtually all of western Europe. France and Belgium were on the verge of total collapse. The British Expeditionary Force had been evacuated from the beaches of Dunkirk to fight another day. England stood alone against mighty Nazi Germany. Winston Churchill, who had been British prime minister for just a month, broadcast this famous, defiant oration. Listen as one of the great figures of the 20th century delivers probably his most famous speech of the Second World War era. Churchill's 'fight them on the beaches' speech sets the tone of the war for the entire British Empire.

Winston Churchill gets my vote for Man of the 20th Century. There's a beautiful park named in his honor five minutes from my house.
