你以为我是什么人？
in april 1941, germany invaded greece through bulgaria and macedonia. greek and british commonwealth troops fought back but were overwhelmed. on 24 april, british forces, along with australian, new zealand, and polish troops, began to withdraw from greece. the mediterranean fleet evacuated more than 50,000 men over a six-day period.
the british first armoured brigade under brigadier charrington were the last guys at the evacuation. embarkation by rowing boat was painfully slow. when the beachmaster informed charrington that he could be put on a boat ahead of the rest, charrington exploded with anger:"who do you take me for?" he declared he would be going on the boats last.

一九四一年四月，德军取道保加利亚和马其顿，进犯希腊，希腊和英联邦军队连手抗敌，但终告不支。四月二十四日，英军和澳洲、新西兰、波兰军队开始撤出希腊，地中海舰队六天之内撤走了五万人。
英国第一装甲旅由旅长查林顿指挥，是最后撤退的一批军人。由于登舰要靠划艇，过程十分缓慢。海滩勤务队长跟查林顿说，可以安排他先乘艇登舰。查林顿一听，怫然作色说：「你以为我是什么人？」他声明，自己要到最后才上划艇。
