Actually, I really couldn't say how famous it is. I <I>think</I> the only reason I know it is because of the movie <I>The Battle of Britain</I> that my family and I have seen several dozen times. That's saying a lot, because I love history and my mind tends to hang on to miscellaneous facts and quotes.<P>Of course, I am over here in the U.S. "Over there," perhaps it is better known - as indeed it should be.
