EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a young Princess Elizabeth, who would later become Queen Elizabeth II, makes her first radio broadcast on 11 October 1940. The image captures the 14-year-old princess, dressed in a simple white blouse and dark skirt, sitting at a microphone, her serious expression conveying the gravity of the moment. The princess, who had been evacuated from London to Windsor Castle during World War II, spoke directly to the hearts of British children who had been evacuated abroad to the United States and Canada. The princess's voice, clear and reassuring, filled the airwaves as she addressed her young audience, offering words of comfort and encouragement during a time of great uncertainty and fear. "I want you to tell your mothers and fathers that we are thinking of them, and that they mustn't worry about us," she said, her voice steady and strong. "Everyone is doing their best. I know it's difficult, but try and be good and do what your teachers tell you." The photograph is a poignant reminder of a young girl's unexpected journey to the throne and her role as a symbol of hope and resilience during a time of war. The image captures the spirit of the 1940s, a decade marked by hardship and sacrifice, but also by a sense of unity and determination in the face of adversity. The princess's broadcast, which was broadcast over the wireless, provided a precious connection between the children and their homeland, offering a sense of continuity and normalcy amidst the chaos of war. The photograph is a testament to the power of communication and the enduring bond between a monarch and her people. It is a reminder of the importance of staying connected, especially during times of crisis, and of the role that a young girl, who would grow up to become a beloved queen, could play in bringing comfort and hope to a nation.
