Prince William Visits WWII Veterans, People Instantly See Diana When He Does This
Prince William shared a special moment with a WWII veteran as he attended an air display
to mark the 60th anniversary of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight on Tuesday.
The royal dad is patron of the Flight, which was formed to honor the planes involved in
the Battle of Britain.
William arrived at RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire by helicopter before spending time with the
veterans.
During his visit, he made a special connection with 99-year-old veteran Ken Wilkinson when
he bent down to talk to him in his wheelchair.
It’s a touching move that William’s late mother, Princess Diana, often used when talking
to people in wheelchairs.
In the photo below, Diana is pictured greeting an elderly woman in a wheelchair during a
visit to a hospice in Toronto in October 1991.
Rusty Waughman, 94, who was a Lancaster pilot from 1943 to 1944, spoke to the prince during
his visit on Tuesday.
“He was so easy to talk to, so pleasant,” Waughman said.
“Being here brings back so many memories.”
