It seems that Prince Harry’s situation is more confusing than we all think, and despite the fact that the UK community does not like him and much less his royal family, it would be the opposite in the United States, who has welcomed him with open arms to celebrate his triumphs, even if it is aviation.
Prince Harry to be honored in the U.S. as a living aviation legend
The online community has shown its great surprise after the news that the prince would receive a tribute in the United States, a very controversial topic just after it was known about the problems the prince had after talking about his experience in Afghanistan.
On Wednesday, it emerged that the Duke of Sussex, 39, is one of four honorees at the 21st annual Living Legends of Aviation Awards, which will be presented Jan. 19 in Beverly Hills. John Travolta will host the event, which will recognize “those who have made significant contributions to aviation/aerospace.” Prince Harry served as a helicopter pilot during his military service in the British Army, flying training missions in the U.S., U.K. and Australia, as well as combat operations in Afghanistan.
After completing the eight-month Army Pilot Course at the Army Aviation Center, where he learned to fly the Firefly aircraft and the Squirrel helicopter and accumulated some 220 flying hours, he earned his pilot wings in 2010. During his tenure in the Army Air Corps, Harry spent three and a half years in training and active duty with the Apache Force. He was appointed co-pilot gunner during training and became a fully operational Apache pilot in February 2012.
What are your thoughts on this, and do you think the prince deserves to be honored?
