(6 Jun 2019) Britain's Prince Harry on Thursday praised the bravery of D-Day veterans during a meeting with Chelsea Pensioners in London.
Harry said he was "honoured" to be in the presence of veterans after meeting with six former servicemen who were involved in the hazardous landing operation on the beaches of Normandy.
The Duke of Sussex laughed and joked with the veterans during his visit to the Royal Hospital Chelsea.
The prince, a former military officer, also took part in the Royal Hospital Chelsea's annual Founder's Day celebrations.
"On this 75th anniversary of D-Day, I can comfortably speak for everyone when I say we are honoured to be in the presence of six Normandy landing veterans," Harry said.
Nearly two thousand veterans, their families, friends and regimental representatives were present at the event.
The Duke was dressed in his Blues and Royals frock coat and peaked cap, and he carried a sword.
Harry's father, Prince Charles, took part in D-Day memorials in France.
