Jack Churchill fought the entirety of World War II armed with a Scottish broadsword, a longbow, and a set of bagpipes. He played the pipes while his commandos stormed a beach in Norway, captured 42 prisoners in Sicily with just a sword and one corporal, and was eventually taken prisoner while playing "Will Ye No Come Back Again?" on his bagpipes. He reportedly complained that the Americans ended the war too soon with the atomic bomb.
