1. Princess Elizabeth’s Broadcast speech recorded from radio illustrated by still of the two Princesses and pictures of children evacuated overseas
UPSOUND OF VOICEOVER: “Delightful to all who head her was Princess Elizabeth’s first broadcast address to children who have gone overseas.“
VOICE OF PRINCESS ELIZABETH: “All of us children who are still at home think continually of our friends and relations who have gone overseas, who have travelled thousands of miles to find a wartime home and are kindly welcomed in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and the United States of America. I’m sure that you too are often thinking of the old country. We know, every one of us, that in the end all will be well. For God will care for and give us victory and peace. And when peace comes, remember, it will be for us, the children of today, to make a world of tomorrow a better and happier place. My sister is by my side and we are both going to say good night to you. Come on, Margaret. Good night, soldiers. Good night and good luck to you all.“

To accomplish that we must give nothing less than the whole of ourselves. There is a motto which has been borne by many of my ancestors - a noble motto - “I Serve“
