Oh obviously, because that must have been the purpose of his many visits. For instance, I mean, when he came apart from going to the look out post he was always at the two guns at St Margaret's, which of course replied to the Germans when they were shelling us (Q: Did he have any words of encouragement for the civilian population who were under fire?) Every time he came here. He left messages with the mayor to give to the townspeople.CU Cont (Q: Mr Ransome, how will you remember Sir Winston Churchill?) Well I shall remember him in the dark days with his bulldog spirit, and triumphant leadership and I shall also remember him in the more happier days when he was installed as Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, and he came to Dover in his magnificent uniform as Lord Warden.Neg 16mm ITN/Court/Pellett 59 ft 1.34 mins24.1.65 / 7.29 pm
