Prince Harry and Meghan Markle opened a new recovery base for veterans in San Diego ahead of Remembrance Day.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex joined the Navy SEAL Foundation as they opened the new training base, called the ‘West Coast warrior fitness programme facility’.
The royal couple, both wearing poppies, stood aside as officials cut the ribbon before they toured the building.
Tony Duynstee, a former SEAL, said: ‘We’re thrilled that the Duke and Duchess are here.
‘It’s quite an honor for them to be here for the commissioning.’
The base helps with physical and mental health, with coaches, dietitians and pathologists on side, the Times of San Diego reported.
Earlier in the day the couple met with veterans, servicemen and women at camp Pendleton.
According to their foundation Archewell, they learnt about the work of Operation Bigs, which connects military families with others.
The Duchess wore a $1,490 Carolina Herrera cardigan embroidered with poppies, ahead of Remembrance Day on November 11.
The Prince spent a decade in the British Army, serving two tours of Afghanistan.
It comes as Prince Harry did a stand-up video for a charity event in New York on Monday at the Stand Up for Heroes comedy show.
He joked about taking advice from a reiki healer and described gingers as an ‘endangered species’.
During his ‘set’, Harry said: ‘Due to the shockingly low representation of gingers last year, and out of respect for my fellow endangered species, here I am, reporting for duty.
‘As someone who never gets scrutinised, I haven’t even had to prepare much.
‘But out of an abundance of caution, I have been working on this particular act for quite some time and everyone I know tells me it’s perfect.
‘And no, these aren’t people who just tell me what I want to hear, these are people like my finance manager, my lawyer, and of course, my reiki healer.’
