They Mocked His 'Medieval' Bow — Until He Killed 7 German Sergeants in 3 Days

Описание: Why Captain Jack Churchill carried a medieval longbow into World War 2 — and scored the last confirmed bow kill in modern warfare. This World War 2 story reveals how ancient weapons created psychological shock against the Wehrmacht.

May 27, 1940. Captain Jack Churchill, British Expeditionary Force officer, crouched behind a stone wall near L'Épinette, France. German soldiers advanced through morning mist. Churchill drew his six-foot English longbow and killed a Wehrmacht sergeant at thirty yards. Every British Army manual said medieval weapons were obsolete against Panzers. The War Office, his commanding officers, and fellow soldiers called it insanity.

They were all wrong.

What Churchill discovered that morning in France wasn't about firepower. It was about psychological warfare in a way that contradicted everything Sandhurst had taught. By December 1941 — Operation Archery in Norway — his Commandos were charging beaches while he played bagpipes and wielded his broadsword. German soldiers froze, unprepared for medieval shock tactics. And they survived.

This unconventional approach spread through British special forces, inspiring aggressive psychological operations from Norway to Italy and beyond. Churchill's methods proved that sometimes the oldest weapons could defeat modern armies through fear and shock value.
