Meghan Markle Shares Archival Afghanistan Clip in Veterans Day Tribute to Prince Harry

The post positions the couple’s Remembrance‑week message as a salute to service.

Overview

  • Markle posted the tribute on Instagram on November 11, quoting Harry’s line, “Once served. Always serving,” and thanking those who served and continue to serve.
  • The video features a 2013 moment at Camp Bastion where Harry halts a television interview, removes his microphone and sprints to respond to an emergency alert.
  • A second image shows Harry meeting veterans at Toronto’s Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre on November 6, where he wore a remembrance poppy.
  • Coverage notes Harry’s decade in the British Army, including two tours in Afghanistan and qualification as an Apache attack helicopter pilot, alongside his later creation of the Invictus Games in 2014.
  • The tribute was published following criticism of the couple’s attendance at two Los Angeles events on November 8 during Remembrance weekend, when Harry wore a poppy and Meghan did not.
