Prime Minister Winston Churchill stand proudly in the heart of Berlin on July 21, 1945, watching British fighting forces march in victory through the streets of the conquered German capital. Mr. Churchill took the salute with his chiefs of staff beside him and representatives of the allies. Even the people of Berlin clapped and cheered. The parade was a triumph for the desert rats - seventh Armoured division whose glorious pilgrimage from Alamein to Berlin will go down in history.

Jul 01, 1945 - Berlin, Germany - The greatest of all Britain's war leaders, WINSTON CHURCHILL was uniquely stirred by the challenge of war and found his fulfillment in leading the democracies to victory. It was to prove more important that as a democrat, he was disgusted by the rise of totalitarian systems in Europe. In 1935 he warned the House of Commons of the importance not only of 'self-preservation but also of the human and the world cause of the preservation of free governments and of Western civilization against the ever advancing sources of authority and despotism.'
