quote:

Lt. Col. John Malcolm Thorpe Fleming Churchill, or “Mad Jack”

Born in Hong Kong in 1906, Churchill joined the military in 1926, but soon left to, obviously, become a professional bagpiper and represent Britain in the World Archery Championship in 1939 — two skills he would bring back with him when recalled to service as World War II broke out.

Mad Jack won his first Military Cross during the British retreat to Dunkirk. It was during the retreat that he killed his first German with a longbow, using that and two machine guns until running out of ammunition and escaping to the main British force through German lines.

I don't know that anyone on the OT would consider her a badass, but my favorite is Dorothea Lynn Dix, who headed up the Army Nurse Corps during the Civil War/War Between the States and then spent the rest of her life campaigning for humane treatment for the mentally ill.

Ben Lillly


Teddy Roosevelt on Ben Lilly

quote:

never met any other man so indifferent to fatigue and hardship. The morning he joined us in camp, he had come on foot through the thick woods, followed by his two dogs, and had neither eaten nor drunk for twenty-four hours; for he did not like to drink the swamp water. It had rained hard throughout the night and he had no shelter, no rubber coat, nothing but the clothes he was wearing and the ground was too wet for him to lie on, so he perched in a crooked tree in the beating rain, much as if he had been a wild turkey. He equaled Cooper's Deerslayer in woodcraft, in hardihood, in simplicity–and also in loquacity
