Quiz Number Eight - War with Japan

Couldn't locate a more suitable Forum to place this week's Quiz- as naval questions predominate, hence this one.

The damsel is still awaiting the arrival of a handsome knight errant - one who answered all ten questions correctly first time.

Quiz Number 8

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)
