EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a young and determined Prince of Wales, later known as King Edward VIII and then the Duke of Windsor, leading his fellow Grenadier Guards in a parade before Buckingham Palace in October 1914. The Prince, who would later be prevented from seeing front line action during the First World War due to his royal status, is seen carrying the regimental flag with pride and determination. The Grenadier Guards, all considerably taller than the Prince, march in formation behind him, their expressions a mixture of respect and amusement at their diminutive leader. The parade took place in London, as the world was plunged into the chaos and destruction of the Great War. The Prince's desire to join the fight and prove himself on the battlefield was a source of frustration for him, and he would later abdicate the throne in 1936 in order to marry Wallis Simpson, an American divorcee, a decision that shocked the world. This historical image offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in British royal history, as the young Prince, dressed in his military uniform, leads his regiment in a show of support for the war effort.
