HIS MAJESTY THE KING BECOMES FIRST PATRON OF THE COMMONWEALTH WAR GRAVES COMMISSION
His Majesty The King has today become Patron of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC), the first in its history. His Royal Highness The Duke of Kent, who has been President of the CWGC since 1970, has today officially passed the Presidency of the organisation over to Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal.
The Commonwealth War Graves Commission is a global organisation, caring for war graves at 23,000 locations in more than 150 countries and territories. The CWGC ensures that more than 1.7 million Commonwealth men and women who died during both World Wars are honoured. Since its establishment by Royal Charter, the CWGC has constructed 2,500 war cemeteries and plots, erected headstones over graves and where remains are missing inscribed the names of the dead on permanent memorials.
On a recent State Visit to Kenya, The King and Queen visited the Commonwealth War Graves' Kariokor Cemetery in Nairobi. Their Majesties joined British and Kenyan military personnel in an act of remembrance, before hearing about the Commission's recent work to ensure all those who supported Britain's efforts in both World Wars are commemorated.
As the new President of the CWGC, The Princess Royal said:
"In recording and maintaining the graves of the men and women from across the Commonwealth who died during both World Wars, the CWGC plays a significant role in commemorating those who sacrificed so much for our future. Their cemeteries, large or small, always have an impact.
"I am honoured to become President of this organisation and know that I have a challenge in continuing the dedicated work of His Royal Highness The Duke of Kent for over 50 years.
Preserving the legacy of those from across the Commonwealth who gave their future in order to preserve ours is a privilege. We will remember them"
His Royal Highness The Duke Of Kent was appointed President of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission on 27 February 1970. As President, The Duke of Kent has supported the work of the CWGC and travelled widely to visit their sites including in Australia, France, Belgium, Ireland and Bulgaria.

"Visit their graves and memorials if you can, for they, too, deserved to be remembered."
Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, visits the Commonwealth War Graves Commission's Chatham Naval Memorial to mark the centenary of the Battle of Jutland.
The magnificent simplicity of the cenotaph is awe-inspiring, every time I see it. The strange not-quite-straight lines that suggest the monument extends upwards to the stars and down, deep into the earth. A masterpiece.
