One might think that a young princess of a royal household has all the comforts of the world, that they have nothing to complain about, and that life is indeed a bed of roses for them.
However, one exception is the 18-year-old Crown Princess Of Belgium and Duchess of Brabant, Elisabeth, who is undergoing tough military training at the Royal Military Academy, Brussels.
According to The Brussels Times, the princess is being taught the values of Defence such as discipline, respect, commitment and courage, as well as shooting, marching, and camouflage techniques.
“She is addressed by her family name, like all other pupils. I do not think anyone realises on a daily basis that there is a princess in their platoon,” revealed the academy.
Though there are bodyguards to keep a watch on her, nobody has a clue about their whereabouts.
Pictures and videos have been shared by the royal household. The princess is seen wearing a camouflage uniform and carrying a rifle for shooting practice. According to Daily Mail, she has been spotted “sprinting through fields” and “crawling across the muddy ground”.

She has become a great inspiration for women at such a young age!
