The Duke of Sussex, who served a decade in the UK Army, is among the distinguished recipients at the upcoming 21st Annual Living Legends of Aviation Awards in Beverly Hills on January 19.
Adding to the occasion's significance, John Travolta, renowned for his dance with Princess Diana in 1985, will host the event, providing double joy for King Charles III's youngest son.
The event's website praised Prince Harry, stating, "He is a humanitarian, military veteran, mental wellness advocate, and environmentalist, dedicating his life to causes that bring about lasting change for people and places."
This US honor follows a recent setback in the UK, where Prince Harry was notably absent from the military guide celebrating Sandhurst's top officers.
Author Vaughan Kent-Payne, addressing the omission, remarked, "Not everybody who trained there was a good egg," hinting at a thinly veiled critique of Meghan Markle's husband, who relocated to the US after stepping down from royal duties in 2020.
In his memoir "Spare," the Duke of Sussex proudly recounts his military service, sharing details of two tours of duty in Afghanistan as a forward air controller and Apache helicopter pilot, including training missions in the UK, US, and Australia.
