Those who fought in the three-and-a-half-month Battle of Britain came to be known as The Few after a speech by prime minister Winston Churchill. The former leader said of their sacrifices in battle: "Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few."

Without the “Few” and many many brave men of that generation, none of us may have the liberties and freedoms we take for granted today. RIP.

In his mind he probably said “I’m making it to 100” then once he did just let go
