Archewell released poignant photos of the occasion, including the royal saluting personnel as he arrived, and being shown the memorial, which bares the names of the victims.
As Harry was stripped of his military honours after he left the royal family, he was unable to salute or wear military uniform when at the Queen's funeral in September; a small exception was made to allow him in his military uniform when he and the Queen's other grandchildren held a vigil at her coffin.
Harry was seen performing a US salute, with the palm facing towards the shoulder, as opposed to facing straight out.

The photos came ahead of the release of his docuseries charting his and Meghan's departure from the royal family and the first trailer caused quite a stir when it dropped on 1 December, with the Duke stating: "No one sees what's happening behind closed doors. I had to do everything I could to protect my family."

The Sussexes signed a deal with Netflix in 2020, and although the exact worth is unknown, it is reportedly around $100million.

Prince Harry's long-awaited and "intimate" memoir Spare will also hit the shelves on 10 January 2023, and will provide a first-hand account of his experiences, adventures, losses and life lessons that have helped shape him.
