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.

I can hear Cathy now....'so sappy!!' lol Yes, I agree, but it's also a beautiful tribute that expresses how fortunate we are when we have one friend who is always there to love us and accept us, even when we screw up. This is for that friend.
