EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph from the 1930s, a young Princess Elizabeth, later to become Queen Elizabeth II, is seen greeting the Officer of the Guard with a warm and radiant smile upon her arrival at Rushmoor Arena for the daylight dress rehearsal of the Aldershot Tattoo in 1935. The Princess, who was just 21 years old at the time, is elegantly dressed in a long, flowing coat and hat, exuding an air of grace and poise. The Officer of the Guard, dressed in his ceremonial uniform, stands tall and proud, returning the Princess's smile with a respectful and formal nod. The atmosphere is one of joy and excitement, as the Princess is welcomed to the event with great fanfare. The Aldershot Tattoo was an annual military spectacle held at Rushmoor Arena in Aldershot, England, showcasing the skills and discipline of the British military. This photograph captures a moment of history, as the future monarch connects with her subjects and demonstrates her natural charm and charisma. The image is a testament to the enduring tradition of the British monarchy and the special bond between the people and their sovereign.
