A WWII Female General Officer!!!! Who is She????

[patches]

This woman is dressed as a General but she's not listed as far as I seen, there was one, one Helen Gwynne-Vaughan but this isn't her. Any idea?

 

 St John's Wood, London. - 3 June 1946 Victory Parade in London, with Indian Troops present for the parade.

Think you'll find that that is an image of the (then) Princess Royal, Princess Elizabeth, dressed as the Honorary Commandant of the ATS.

Thank you Baseplate.

 

Doesn't really look like her LOL, looks like an older person, not too old mind you, what about all those ribbons?

 

This spurred me to Having another look online in a detailed search and found her, it is in fact Princess Mary, the ribbons certainly now match up now, though I don't know how she earned them right, as she wasn't in the Army in the Great War, she apparently was a Nursing Sister, stating her training in the summer of 1918, but did not go on active service as it were after training. Yeah would these be Royal Family  type awards?

 

she was

 

"Controller Commandant of the ATS in 1941, a largely ceremonial but vital role that greatly raised the service's profile and morale through her extensive tours and support. Controller Commandant" 

 

 

. Princess Elizabeth was a captional error for sure.
