Prince Harry has been practising his German to mark the country’s first Veterans Day.
He started his speech in German and greeted viewers by saying “Guten Tag Deutschland!”.
The Duke of Sussex said it was a “profound privilege” to deliver the message on the “sacred day”.
He referenced his last visit to Germany for the Invictus Games in 2023, when he was joined by more than 2,500 veterans and injured service personnel.
Harry said: “My last visit to your remarkable country was to Düsseldorf two years ago for the Invictus Games, and it remains etched in my memory.
“The warmth, the enthusiasm, and the unwavering support shown by the German people for our global community of wounded service personnel was truly humbling. You certainly delivered on your promise to create a home for respect.
“That spirit of camaraderie, forged on the sports field, mirrors the unbreakable bond that connects veterans of all nations. We understand each other, regardless of flag or uniform, bound by shared experiences and an enduring commitment to service.
“Veterans are more than warriors – they are leaders. Living testaments to resilience and moral courage, they understand that loyalty must never lie with power alone, but with the people. With truth.”
