During the Depression, Frenchmen used berets as a method of contraception.
Judging by the population of France, this method was not particularly successful.

The Purple Helmets were a famously anti-birth control sect of the British Army. Infamous regimental head, Colonel John Thomas, came close to falling on his own sword in the Battle of the Bulge

The Battle of the Bulge occurred in late 1944. An elite Nazzie commando unit had seized control of part of Churchill's waistline, AKA the Bulge.

A company of British parartroopers under the command of Colonel Starmer were assigned to recapture the Bulge, although the good Colonel failed in his mission because "things have changed."

The Nazzies formally annexed all of Churchill's waistline in 1949, and to this day descendents of Churchill need to show their passport before bathing below the navel.
