December 27, 1941, on landing the third assault battalion of the British army, the Nazi garrison stationed on the Norwegian island of Vågsøy heard the sound of bagpipes.
They played the "March of the Cameron Men."

This soldier was Lieutenant Colonel John Malcolm Thorpe Fleming Churchill, 35 year old and his exploits in the operation Archery, it has been the most strange has ever done in his life.
During World War II, "Mad Jack," as it was called, has survived several explosions, escaped from prison camps, has captured more than forty Germans in one operation, and in 1940 was the last person in the history to kill someone using a longbow.
He not graduated from the academy for officers at Sandhurst in 1926 because at 20 years old was sent to Burma, where he spent the following years to turn motorcycle for the region.
Perhaps bored by the long period of peace, in 1936 Churchill left the army and for a time has been a journalist for a newspaper in Nairobi, as well as the model and the bagpiper pulling archery in films like the Thief of Baghdad and An American in Oxford.
A short time later he was back in operation, and joined the Italian campaign of 1943, where a night came out on a mission with a corporal, he crept up and surprised the German camp guards with his sword.
In 1945 he escaped from a field during a black out and continue on foot for about 160 km, until he found a US Army regiment stationed in Verona and failed to convince the soldiers that he was a British officer.
Looking at the pictures that portray Churchill, Loades suspects used a bow lighter, with less than 18 kg of power, compared with 45 of the medieval arches, and 80 arches of modern war.
