British Prime Minister (1874–1965). In World War II he declared total resistance to the Nazis and inspired the British people with speeches including "We shall fight on the beaches."

Continuous psychological care for the population and soldiers — the core of +Si-c creative function. Wartime visits to continuously encourage the public; hands-on inspection of factories, hospitals, and military units.

Vulnerable Function 1-Ni-p weak (Crisis & Fantasy)
