The Royals in World War II
People rarely think of the King of the Commonwealth and his family during World War 2.
King George was nearly killed by a bomb during the blitz. Did he leave? No, he said that all families in London do not get to run away from London and he and his family will not leave either. He served his country in support efforts. The current Queen Elizabeth was then Princess Elizabeth. She served the country in a program called WATS. The men in the Royal Family serve in the Armed Forces for the Nation. People do not realize they do not just sit around even in the face of war. The King or Queen is the head of all the armed forces and is responsible for them.
