Princess Louise of Prussia

 


You may not like it, all ye Libs, but Princess Louise of Prussia was equally at home at court or as Hon. Col. of the Death's Head Hussars. Here, look at this:




The troops love her, understandably.




Because she lifts everyone's spirits, a force multiplier. She was the only daughter and the last child of German Emperor Wilhelm II and Augusta Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein, and a great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria through her father. Born in 1892, she died in 1980.

Some say, foolishly, that women shouldn't be allowed into the martial profession. That's clearly an error, see above. Others argue that Melania should be and in fact is Hon. Col. of the DLC (Dallas Light Cavalry). Prestigious unit, what?

Like Melania, she's easy on the eyes. Looking at her biography she lived a life in full.

Remarkable bio, when you think of it, DOS. She saw the world turn, if you'll forgive the phrase.

Please don't anybody show that uniform to our current sturgeon general. They/them would commission a duplicate.

Wild, I'm seriously hoping the SG isn't paying attention to this far-flung kebab stand on the unpaved back roads of the Information Superhighway.

Mind you, she did look good and good humored to boot. Clearly a force multiplier.
