Lady Mary Soames passed away at 91. She traveled with her father to the Potsdam conference, and manned AA guns as part of a volunteer group in WWIi. After the war she dedicated her life to public service. None of that surprised me considering who her father was, what surprised me is she was actually quite the looker in her youth. Must have taken after her mother in that area :)

The photo where she is breaking the coca-cola bottle on the aircraft nose is a great one. I bet she had some great stories RIP.

Racing is life... anything else is just waiting.
As many Brits as there are on this board, I'm fairly shocked that none of them picked up on this.

Never heard of her myself. But wow, what a link to history.
