The Battle of Britain Page #4

Why did the Nazis lose the Battle of Britain?.

First, because a regimented people, met an equally

determined free people.

And the free people made them quit cold.

We've been bombed, dive-bombed, high-level

bombed,

..machine gunned, been through two invasion

scares...

..and the last lot we had, we had the house down

about our ears."

But we're still sticking it and we're

going to stick it."

Second, because this was a new kind of war.

And the RAF were the men who could fight it.

These are the men who belonged to what

Hitler called,

..those weak, soft democracies.

The British did more than save their country

..they won for the world a year of precious time.

It was not only for the people of Britain, but for the

people of the world that Winston Churchill spoke,

when he said:
"Never in the field of human conflict,

was so much owed by so many."

Victory of the democracies can only be complete

with the utter defeat of the war machines...

..of Germany and Japan.

C.G. Marshall Chief of Staff
