EDITORS COMMENTS
September 1939: Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. at the US Embassy in London Amidst the chaos and uncertainty of the impending war, Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. (1915-1944), the eldest son of the future U.S. Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Joseph P. Kennedy Sr. (1888-1969), lends a helping hand at the American Embassy in London. With the outbreak of World War II on September 1, 1939, a rush of Americans sought to depart from Britain, and the embassy became a hub of activity. In this photograph, taken in September 1939, Joseph Kennedy Jr. can be seen working diligently at the embassy, assisting in the processing of the numerous applications for travel documents and visas. Surrounded by piles of paperwork and documents, Kennedy's determined expression and focused gaze convey the gravity of the situation and the importance of his role in facilitating the safe return of American citizens. As the elder Kennedy served as the U.S. Ambassador to the Court of St. James's from 1938 to 1940, his son's presence at the embassy during this critical time underscores the strong diplomatic ties between the United States and Great Britain during the early stages of World War II. This image, taken by the Illustrated London News Ltd. and sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the pivotal role the Kennedy family played in the diplomatic efforts of the United States during the early days of the Second World War.
