Duke of Kent Hands Over MAJOR Role to Prince Edward

[@joanne26]

Having lost his father young he was walking behind the coffin of his uncle George v1 back in 1952 Yes he is I suppose the last one left from that time Prince Phillip and Queen Elizabeth now gone I think also of Duke of Gloucester getting on now 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I was going to make this same comment. Prince Edward, the Duke of Edinburgh, is just as hard working as his cousin, Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent. I can see Edward and Sophie both as working royals for many years to come, supporting King Charles during his reign, and King William in the future.

The Duke of Kent served in the Scots Guards for over 20 years he left Sandhurst in 1955 and retired from the Army in 1976 so they would have been been so proud to have him as their Regimental Colonel l like the Duke of Edinburgh, but l don't think he's suitable for a Military role our late Queen did her service for our country in WWII, her father served in WWI our King served in the navy and commanded a Minesweeper he also learned to fly jets in the R.A.F and flew Helicopters The Duke of Kent's father was killed in a plane crash in 1942 serving our country The Duke of York was in the Navy 20 years and served in the Falklands War and there are others and l know if Anne had been allowed to serve, she would have done well too but Edward could not even complete his training and he QUIT

Actually, it's Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, KG, GCMG, GCVO, CD, ADC, but you're not here because you know what you're talking about are you. This is how you spend your days.@@Gray-d7h

@@Gray-d7h Yes make sure to have all your alts like your comments.. like no one knows what you're doing. You should be embarrassed that you are this obsessed with other people. Instead of enjoying the videos you spend your time making new accounts and looking for photos that look like theirs but not exactly. You've done it to me at least 4 times.

Actually he is the son of the former Duke of Kent - HRH The Prince George, Duke of Kent, not "Prince George of Kent" as that would make him his own son. The current DOK was born HRH Prince Edward of Kent as the son of The Duke of Kent.

The Old Guard steps aside. May honour , duty and respect for the institution continue . This comment is not directed at Prince Edward , his siblings nor other working members of the RF and their families.

Thank you for your dedicated service Your Royal Highness. Proud to have served in the Scots Guards under you.

The Duke of Kent is an accomplished soldier, serving in the British Army for over two decades. He holds the rank of Field Marshal.

Very fitting for the Duke of Edinburgh to be the Colonel of the Scots Guards 🇬🇧
