10082 U.K. Prime Minister Winston Churchill, 1940-45 A statesman, army officer, orator, and writer, Churchill is arguably the most celebrated Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. He joined the British Army in 1895 and was elected to Parliament in 1900. During WWI, he was First Lord of the Admiralty (until the ill-fated Gallipoli Campaign) and in 1917, feeling remorse and the need for redemption, he joined the Royal Scots Fusiliers and served on the Western Front in the front lines. With a keen eye toward the future, Churchill warned of the growing threat of Nazism all through the 1930s, ultimately steering British involvement with the Allies over the Axis powers. 1/30 scale Matte Finish 1 Piece Set
