The crimson-haired royal announced, “After a decade of service,
moving on from the army has been a really tough decision. I consider
myself incredibly lucky to have had the chance to do some very
challenging jobs and have met many fantastic people in the process. From
learning the hard way to stay onside with my Color Sergeant at
[military academy] Sandhurst, to the incredible people I served with
during two tours in Afghanistan – the experiences I have had over the
last 10 years will stay with me for the rest of my life. For that I will
always be hugely grateful.”
Harry continued, “Inevitably most good things come to an end and I am
at a crossroads in my military career. Luckily for me, I will continue
to wear the uniform and mix with fellow servicemen and women for the
rest of my life, helping where I can, and making sure the next few
Invictus Games are as amazing as the last. While I am finishing one part
of my life, I am getting straight into a new chapter. I am really
looking forward to it.”
