from the perspective of an outsider, she always struck me as a monarch who led from the front. Can’t say that about many “world leaders” these days. Sincere condolences to you all...

I concur with all the fine tributes given here to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
We will miss her. Long Live the King.

Honoured to have had Her Majesty the Queen as the Colonel in chief of The Royal Green Jackets.
The Queen is Dead, Long live the King.

She always carried out her duties with the utmost decorum, dignity, and professionalism, and did so for 70 years. The Greatest Briton.
Rest in peace our Queen Elizabeth.

A sad day indeed. I was transiting in Doha on the way to Barcelona when I heard the news.

May she Rest In Peace.

God save the King! King Charles III

I am totally devastated it feels like a family member has died. I was once on a guard of honour for her l nearly bust the buttons off my tunic with pride.

I have prompted myself to take out my old RAF Form 60 dated 1968 and reread my Oath of Allegiance to Her Majesty, Heirs and Successors. RIP Queen Elizabeth II.
