Sir Winston Churchill 1874-1965. PM of Britian during and after WWII. Did you know that in 1963 President Kennedy made him an honary citizen of the United States?

Welcome back, Steve.... that's all I need to say! :-)

Logically solvable, with no guessing required. A bit of edge logic on the top row of 17, and then it solved well. Very fun to do!

well done. and ditto #1 on NO guessing.
My junior high was named after him so I was able to guess him half way through cuz I'd seen his picture so many times on the wall.

Thank you. Again I was battling the checker but I must have done a better job handling it.

Normally on those that asks if it was solvable with logic alone I admit I normally don't solve them without guessing but I had no trouble with this one. Great puzzle! One of my favorites to solve I think.

How ironic - as I was solving this, I was watching the movie "The Eagle Has Landed", about the German plot to kidnap Churchill during WWII. Great likeness - thank you!

To #5 If you liked the movie you should read the book of the same name by Jack Higgins.

NO guessing required...I didn't even have to use edge logic. Lovely, fun puzzle!

Great puzzle. Nice B/W image. Edge logic makes for a great challenge in a bigger puzzle like this.
