Her Royal Highness The Princess Victoria Alexandra Alice Mary, Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood, Companion of the Imperial Order of the Crown of India, Dame Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order, Dame Grand Cross of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, Dame Grand Cross of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, Member (First Class) of the Royal Red Cross.

Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal (Mary), King George VI's sister, visited 21 Signals Regiment as Colonel-in-Chief on RAF Laarbruch on 10 October 1960.


A newspaper article states she arrived from JHQ Rheindahlen accompanied by OC 2TAF Air Marshal Sir Humphrey Edwardes-Jones.

If she actually landed on RAF Laarbruch or arrived by car is not clear.

The Station Commander at that time was Group Captain HNG Wheeler.
