The last King of Great Britain and Ireland to take to the battlefield was James the Seventh in the 17th Century.
James VI King of Scots, was the first King to rule over the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland throughout his reign he never declared war on another country.
Charles I & Charles II and James VII / II. All three took to the field in battle. They were probably the last to do so before the Germans usurped the throne.
Any war that British forces took part in ever since reign was caused by the Germans. WW1 WW2.

That would be King George VI -- England was a battlefield during WW2, and the King remained in London during the bombardment.

You could say King George during the Great War. No, he never fought, but he often visited the frontlines and Buckingham palace was shelled. *shrugs*
