Blimey. I just saw it on the tv in the Young Winston movie; it showed him as a combat correspondent.

That reminds me of the scene in Full Metal Jacket with Joker and Animal Mother:

Animal Mother: You a photographer ?

Joker: No; I'm a combat correspondent.

Animal Mother: You seen much combat ?

Joker: I seen a little, on tv.

I mean, that is the point; do combat correspondents see much combat ?

    Well a "War Correspondent" in the Boer war, he was actually captured and managed to escape too!
