Princess Auto Mechanic

Horizon Times

Queen Elizabeth never thought that she would take over her father’s role and become queen at the age of 25, but that’s exactly what happened when he died. Queen Elizabeth, a young mother of two who eventually had two more children, had the weight of an entire nation – moreover four countries – on her shoulders. Before becoming queen, she joined the army despite her family’s aversion, eventually studying to be an auto mechanic and even dubbed “Princess Auto Mechanic.” During the war, she wasn’t willing to just stand on the sidelines either, and became the first female in the royal family to be an active duty member in the army.
