Kensington Palace released the Christmas card image Tuesday of Harry holding hands with 95-year-old Tom Neil, an ex-wing commander and Battle of Britain Hurricane and Spitfire pilot. Harry met the Neil in September, when veterans and servicemen gathered to mark the aerial conflict's 75th anniversary.
It just so happened to be Harry's birthday, and he was supposed to ride in a Spitfire. The royal gave up his seat to ensure Neil and two wounded servicemen could participate in the events.
Citing the experience as one of the prince's "most memorable moments of 2015," the black-and-white image is moving, what with all of its hand-holding and smiling faces.
Well done, Harry. Consider the bar raised for Christmas cards of both royals and mere mortals alike.Â
