        @BeschlossDC @cindynorth1 Eisenhower looks like he's shooting commies. Churchill looks like he's shooting grouse.

        @BeschlossDC One was an Army officer, one was First Lord of the Admiralty. Note the firing positions and guess which is which.

        @BeschlossDC @CatholicLisa Eisenhower looks the better shot. Churchill takes aim as if he's trying to shoot moving ducks at the fair.
