  Who cares if he doesn’t have his brother’s glamour and charm.  King Georges stepped up to the plate despite of all his challenges. That’s sacrifice . He proved to be a greater man in the end

  King George and Queen Elizabeth’s courage in staying in London and going to bombed out areas of London boosted public morale and helped to save Western civilization from Hitler during WWII. We survivors owe the monarchs and Winston Churchill a debt of gratitude for their bravery.

  The poor King was the best man who came out of that whole family yet never got to grow old with his family he so loved. However, lets not forget he brought up the most loved, respected and formidible woman in the world.

  As an American, I have a great deal of respect for King George and Queen Elizabeth. Class acts. The King was a fine example of a man who didn't want to lead but rose to the occasion and became the leader to fit the time. A leader the people needed. They also raised a fine queen in Queen Elizabeth II who spent nearly her entire life in service. A life not of her own. I suspect he was a better King that his foolish and Selfish brother would have been.

  It's amazing, to me, that three Monarchs, George V, George Vi and Queen Elizabeth II, were not meant to rule, yet they made great Monarchs.  George VI, compared to Edward VIII, was a Godsend.

  Marriage made the difference between the two brothers The Prince of Wales and The Duke of York.

  Lucky man King was. Such a wife.. &nbsp;Once he told to his daughter. &quot; &nbsp;Mummy as you know is the most marvelous person in the world to me&quot;.<br>He had not a long life but he was a happy one because of her and princesses.

  Alex said, &quot;King George V&apos;s four sons. There were FIVE sons. Prince John died as a young teen, so, perhaps you should have said, &quot;four SURVIVING sons&quot;.

  Bertie was the better man despite the stutter and lack of charisma. He was a grown up who knew how to do his duty. Thank God in heaven Wallis saved us from Edward VIII, I do not think he would have made a good king given the events that followed. We had the war time king we needed.
