Winston Churchill with a Tommy Gun during an inspection near Harlepool, 1940 1

Winston Churchill with a M1923 Thompson Submachine gun with 50-round drum magazine (Tommy Gun) during an inspection of Commando units near Harlepool, 1940. Winston himself was an old soldier who saw frontline service in the Sudan, Boer Wars, and on the Western Front in WWI after he left the Admiralty over the Gallipoli Campaign.

Classic right?

The Germans even used it in propaganda photos and leaflets during the War.
