It sounds like Britain is going to shut down for a few days.

Do I have it right that the current Queen was a military mechanic
near the end of WWII?

lots wasting lots of flowers in various places.

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.

Unlikely given what cars and trucks had in her day.

Doubt she fixes the land rovers when they go bung today.

Maybe, but I had heard, from tv long ago, that she was an ambulance
driver.

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. And yes, she
did drive more than car, also medium sized trucks.

I wrote her, last week when her husband was doing a little better, and
she sent a very pleasant email in return. She said I needed a smoke
tester.

It was more that it made sense for the
driver to be able to fix what broke.
And in wartime plenty did break in use.

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. And yes, she
did drive more than car, also medium sized trucks.

But not ambulances. Those had drivers trained in
medical stuff, not fixing the ambulance if it broke.

That was done differently during WW2 and she was in the Second
Subaltern Windsor Unit and they didnt drive ambulances.

He wasn't in WW2, it conscripted service *after* the war.

Yeah, I meant that what he had is irrelevant to what Liz had
in WW2 because they did things differently in WW2 and she
wasnt in the operation that did ambulances anyway.
