Yesterday, King Charles announced further military appointments for working members of the royal family, chosen to “continue to reflect the close relationship between the Armed Forces and the Royal Family in His Majesty’s reign,” a statement from Buckingham Palace released yesterday said. Among the appointments? By order of the King, Prince William is now in charge of Prince Harry’s former military unit, Us Weekly reports. This means William “can now add the honorifics of Colonel-in-Chief, The Army Air Corps, Colonel-in-Chief, The Mercian Regiment, and Royal Honorary Air Commodore, R.A.F. Valley, to his list of growing titles as heir apparent,” the outlet writes. William is a veteran of the British military, Buckingham Palace noted, with extensive service in the Royal Air Force in particular; he served as an RAF Search and Rescue pilot from 2010 to 2013.
