Royals at Sandhurst 2006
This year saw the graduation of Prince Harry from Sandhurst Military Academy as an Army officer in the presence of Her Majesty the Queen and His Royal Highness, the Duke of Edinburgh. In December, Prince William should also pass out.
The picture shows the three Princes together after the Passing Out ceremony. On the left is Prince Philip; in the centre, Prince William; and the man-of-the-moment, Prince Harry to right.
The picture captures an amusing moment when the Queen was inspecting the new officers at the Passing Out ceremony and spotted Prince Harry who blushed and beamed widely. She apparently said: “Now there’s a face I recognize.”
What wonderful photo’s !! you can see the delight Prince Phillip takes in his grandsons and it is also clear that the Princes adore him. As for the Queen for once you can see the emotion on her face, the pride and delight at Harry not simply as a sovereign at a passing out parade but as the proud Grandmother she is and Harry equally proud and strong.

Yes, they’re great shots, Trudie. And they’re all obviously delighted with Harry’s progress.
