Prince George, Duke of Kent from 0 to 39 years old

George Edward Alexander Edmund (December 20, 1902 - August 25, 1942) was a member of the British royal family. He was a younger brother of kings Edward VIII and George VI, and uncle of the late Queen Elizabeth II. Born on the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, Prince George was the fifth child and fourth son of King George V and Queen Mary. He served in the Royal Navy in the 1920s and then briefly as a civil servant. He married Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark in 1934, and was created Duke of Kent, Earl of St Andrews, and Baron Downpatrick. The couple had three children: Edward, Alexandra, and Michael. In the late 1930s he served as an Royal Air Force officer, initially as a staff officer at RAF Training Command and then, from July 1941, as a staff officer in the Welfare Section of the RAF Inspector General's Staff. Prince George died tragically at age 39, only seven weeks after his son Michael was born, in the Dunbeath air crash in August 1942, in which fourteen of the fifteen crew and passengers were killed.
