Hate to embarrass myself by asking, but why was Churchill in uniform?
-
Possibly because he was First Lord of the Admiralty during the early years of WWII.

I'm not as up on British tradition and history as I should be. Thanks.

Could this—would this even happen today? It was essential to the safety of the world & the protection of democracy.

The two flag officers behind FDR and Churchill are Ernest King, then CinC Atlantic Fleet and George Marshall, Army Chief of Staff.
