George VI was the monarch of the United Kingdom from 1936 to 1952. He was the father of and succeeded by Elizabeth II.
George was a figure of strength and fortitude for the British people during World War II.
George provided a model of determination in his well-known struggle to overcome the severe stammer that had afflicted him since childhood.
Have you seen the motion picture The King’s Speech (2010), George VI live radio address on September 3, 1939, as Britain entered World War II?
His greatest achievements came during the Second World War, when he remained for most of the time at Buckingham Palace (the Palace was bombed nine times during the war). He and his wife, Queen Elizabeth, visited severely bombed areas in the East End of London and elsewhere in the country, gained him great popularity. Source
George VI was the first British monarch to enter the United States when we visited in 1939.
