[NU Sports] No posts regarding McGee?

[Roy Lamberton]

Old Winnie and Chuck never could agree on anything - read some of the WWII
histories that are blowing around right now - to further quote DeGaulle, "When I
am right, I get angry. Churchill gets angry when he is wrong. So we were often
angry at each other."

In any case, I wonder who DeGaulle was talking about....? Probably Marshall,
Montgomery or Ike.
