King Charles has officially handed over the role of Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps to his eldest son Prince William in a ceremony at the Army Aviation Centre at Middle Wallop
In what's understood as a major snub to Prince Harry , King Charles has appointed Prince William as the head of Harry's old military regiment.
He was also honoured with a guard before Lieutenant General Sir Nicholas Borton and the Colonel Commandant of the Army Air Corps chaperoned him for an exclusive tour of the Army Flying Museum. The weekend brought a significant announcement from Buckingham Palace, which is sure to impact Prince Harry given his past service in the same regiment during his time in Afghanistan. The Palace revealed on Saturday: "At the Army Aviation Centre in Middle Wallop, His Majesty The King will officially hand over the role of Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps to His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales.
Upon his arrival on Monday, King Charles engaged with veteran Aaron Mapplebeck, who shared his experience of undergoing chemotherapy for testicular cancer last year and mentioned his resulting loss of taste, a symptom the King empathised with, claiming he had experienced the same.
