The holiday season has finally arrived. Many families participate in the tradition of sending out Christmas cards featuring a photo and a warm message, and the British Royal Family is no different. Though the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge choose to send out a photograph of themselves with their young children, Prince Harry opted for a more patriotic theme.
The prince selected a photo of himself in front of a Spitfire plane, clasping hands with a 95-year-old veteran from the United Kingdom who served in World War II.
"Merry Christmas from Prince Harry," Kensington Palace wrote on its Twitter account. "Here's his Christmas card photo showing one of his favorite moments from 2015."
Prince Harry, who served in the British Armed Forces for ten years and retired as a Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps, is no stranger to drawing attention to the troops. He and Tom Neil, the veteran featured in the photo, met during the 75th commemorative flypast of the Battle of Britain, as reported by Us Weekly.
Harry is known as being one of the most veteran-focused royals in his lineage, and his Christmas card further cements his commitment to the servicemembers of his country.
