wore his own military medals in a video — just months after he was banned from donning his uniform at his father King Charles’ coronation.His speech also took place on the same day that Charles, 74, delivered his first King’s Speech to Parliament in the UK.In his message, Harry was dressed to the nines in a crisp suit and his medallions.

Three of his British army ribbons were presented to him by his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II. His other badge was of a Royal British Legion poppy.Harry served in the army for 10 years, and underwent two tours in Afghanistan.In his hilarious monologue, the Invictus Games founder joked about his ginger hair and sardonically quipped about never being criticized.“Due to the shockingly low representation of gingers last year, and out of respect for my fellow endangered species, here I am, reporting for duty,” he laughed. “As someone who never gets scrutinized, I haven’t even had to prepare much.”“But out of an abundance of caution, I have been working on this particular act for quite some time and everyone I know tells me it’s perfect.

And no, these aren’t people who just tell me what I want to hear, these are people like my finance manager, my lawyer, and of course, my reiki healer,” Harry teased.The father of two then got a little more serious later on in his speech, commending the army community.“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, service is what happens in the quiet and the chaos,” he said. “And whether we are wearing the uniform or not, we must continue to uphold the values we learned side by side on the base, on the drill square and on the battlefield.” He concluded: “Values of service, values of honor and integrity and values of togetherness and solidarity.”In May,.
