Sic transit gloria mundi. For the US, CNN did a lengthy web write up on Prince Philip. https://www.cnn.com/uk/live-news/prince ... index.html

Truly, a great man who lived a full life & never was afraid to speak his mind. Many called him gaffe prone which never really bothered me; granted some were a tad over the top but most were incredibly funny. My favorite was when he addressed Germany's Helmet Kohl as “Reichskanzler” in a speech in '97. :D

Theres a very good tribute to him & his naval service in the FB Haze Gray History group:

Given this is a site dedicated to AFV, I add this in remembrance that I posted on the Bovington page. RIP.
