Throughout their visit, they discussed mental health, the value of community, and living a life of service, with Prince Harry, who spent a decade in the British army until retiring in 2015, and completed two tours of Afghanistan, opening up about the isolation service members often feel when returning home, and stressed the importance of supporting veterans.

"But in war, you also see and experience things you hope no one else has to.
"These stay with us, sometimes like a slideshow of images."
For the occasion, the Duchess of Sussex donned a black Giorgio Armani faux-wrap dress, which she accessorised with matching Giorgio Armani heels, a poppy, her Cartier watch and bracelet and another bracelet by Jennifer Meyer.
Harry, on the other hand, wore a grey suit and white shirt.

A spokesperson for the couple said Harry and Meghan have "committed themselves to remembering, reflecting and honoring service members, veterans, and military families from around the world".
Last year, the Duke and Duchess marked Veterans Day with a solo trip to the Los Angeles National Cemetery, laying flowers on the military graves.
