Not to be confused with Winston Churchill, “Mad Jack” was a monster on the battlefield equipped with a bow, arrows and a sword. Obviously, he wasn’t going to be known for long. Arrows are slightly less powerful than good old grenades, tanks, bombers and guns. But among his many accomplishments, Jack is credited with the last archery kill in war, taking out a Nazi, which led his men to attack their patrol.

To make him an even more bad ass, “Mad Jack” would charge into battle wearing a kilt, and carrying a dirk, bow and arrow and playing the bagpipes at the worst possible moments. This gained him nothing but respect from his men and a place in history as a legend.
