Many former military members who fought during the second world war are today in a wheelchair. Prince William was greeted by this putting at their height, very simply and in a dignified manner.

The father of George and Charlotte seems to have particularly hit it off with one of the veterans of the 99-year-old Ken Wilkinson. The two men were able to talk, face-to-face. The sequence is very moving that the prince William knelt and laid the hand on the hands of the old man recalls the memory of his mother, princess Diana.

A picture of her was particularly marked : in 1991, when she had gone to the meeting of the elderly in palliative care in Toronto.
