    Sir Winston stood as a standard for, and a friend to, Americans in America and around the world.

    That Christmas the phrase “Peace on Earth and Goodwill toward ALL men.” had a deeper meaning knowing a lot of people listening to this weren’t going to have loved ones to celebrate Christmas with ever again.
    The sacrifices these people made is inspiring. My parents were both young but knew how much the world had changed since December 6th of that year.
    The bonds of brotherhood between the US and UK are unbreakable. We lean on each other. GOD Save the King and his people, GOD Bless America..

      We are again reminded that peace is a fragile, yet blessed, thing. Jesus is the Prince of Peace, and knowing Him as Savior is the finest blessing. We are connected in the world God has created, a common humanity, hopefully loving and decent. It's nice to know, to feel, connected. Jesus is the Light of the world; may His light bless you all.

    This is a keeper! And only little more than two weeks after Pearl Harbor. Thanks for posting. Winston said of FDR "Meeting Franklin Roosevelt was like opening your first bottle of champagne; knowing him was like drinking it."

    What a great orator Sir Winston Churchill was. If only we had a President and Prime Minister of Sir Winston's character today.

      I mean he was a good orator but he was a pretty terrible prime minister. We’re better off without someone like Winston in office.

    Winning WWII was not a done deal in this era. There'd be three-plus years of conflict yet to come from the point when these speechs were delivered.
    I heard about this period from my elders as I grew up. They lived through it. My mother's most charming memory perhaps is of the wartime rationing of everything. I heard about those things in short supply like butter, sugar and eggs. From my grandparents I got the sanitized version of events such as what you'd tell a six year-old. Now I wish I had revisited their recollections more in-depth.

      I do not think that the US knew they would win the war until sometime in 1943. when this speech happened victory was far from certain.

      We were not officially involved in WW2 until Dec. 7, 1941, but we'd been veering toward it for over a year by then. It became clear to FDR that we couldn't stay out of it when France fell to the Nazis and the Blitz began in England, The US started the military draft in September 1940, and we were already losing battleships in the Atlantic in 1941. The US already was seeing shortages in items related to defense, and war production was going at a fast pace. All of that was stepped up at the time of Pearl Harbor.

    And they bathed his feet but he was doing the footmassage. What a bunch of scoundrels actually. But then why not if they can't see what you are doing. Listen to those words. And they took the babies, one of those in those serious times where they put their ears to the radio. Goccha. Touch of drama there ohlala. He was good at Shakespeare.
