Prince Harry, Prince William, King Abdullah II of Jordan and others – which royals have served their country in the military?
For these royals, serving their country extended to a time in the armed forces, including time on active duty in some cases
Historically, royals – from Britain, the Middle East and elsewhere – have done their fair share of time in the military. They’ve taken pride in being able to do this commendable thing as part of their lifetime of service to their countries.
Having joined the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in 2005 as part of British royal protocol, Prince Harry spent a decade in the military. This included being stationed in Afghanistan twice, once as a Forward Air Controller and then as an Apache helicopter co-pilot. He was said to be a natural pilot and attained the rank of captain while on active duty. Besides the danger, he also had to accommodate living in difficult conditions on the ground. He told The Guardian, “It wasn’t that hard for me to adapt to the incredibly tough life of the army. I simply forgot about my royal status. This way, I was able to enjoy my life in the army.”
