(One of a series of daily posts on the life of Winston S. Churchill.)
Just a short post tonight. Its been a long, happy, active day, and I'm tired.
It's early January, 1942 and Churchill is taking a few days rest in Florida. He walks down to the beach for an ocean swim. Other than a handful of aides, there are only a few people further down the beach.
At the waters edge, Churchill decides to take off his trunks. He tells his bodyguard, Scotland Yard Detective Walter Thompson:
"If they are that much interested, it is their own fault what they see."______________________________________
