OT.. Prince Phillip Was 99
It sounds like Britain is going to shut down for a few days.
https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/prince-philip-queen-elizabeth/2021/04/09/id/1016943/ Do I have it right that the current Queen was a military mechanic near the end of WWII? |

Nope. no shutdown, just a fancy funeral and lots wasting lots of flowers in various places. https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/prince-philip-queen-elizabeth/2021/04/09/id/1016943/ Do I have it right that the current Queen was a military mechanic near the end of WWII? Not so much a military mechanic as a driver. They were trained in how to fix what they were driving if it broke down when they were driving it. But she didnt drive full time like the other drivers did and certainly didnt get stuck in the barracks all the time when not driving either. And yes, she did drive more than car, also medium sized trucks. |

Not so much a military mechanic as a driver. They were trained in how to fix what they were driving if it broke down when they were driving it. At early races, like the Indianapolis 500, the drivers were accompanied by a mechanic. I guess cars didn't break down as much by the 1940's. But she didn’t drive full time like the other drivers did and certainly didn’t get stuck in the barracks all the time when not driving either.
