It was announced on the 16th that the Prince of Wales had that day arrived in France. It will be recalled that his Royal Highness joined the 3rd Batt. Grenadier Guards immediately after the declaration of war. Two months ago he wished to go out with the 1st Battalion, but Lord Kitchener then suggested to the King that as the Prince had not completed his military training, it would be inadvisable. It was later officially announced that he has become an Aide-de-Camp to Sir John French. -[Photographed by Ernest Brooks.]
