After ten years in the British Army and two missions in Afghanistan, the Duke of Sussex will be awarded the Aviation Oscar, along with Apollo 11 hero Buzz Aldrin.

“Is this a joke?” We just found out. Prince Harry will be honored alongside Apollo 11 hero Buzz Aldrin as a “living legend” of aviation at a lavish ceremony hosted by John Travolta in Beverly Hills. The Duke of Sussex, 39, will take the honor even ahead of Charles Duke, who became the youngest man on the moon in 1972 at the age of 36. It’s enough to raise more than one eyebrow.

Prince Harry’s nomination for these “aviation Oscars,” as actor Morgan Freeman describes them, caused a stir on social networks. “I look forward to all other military pilots in the world receiving the same award based on their achievements in this field,” wrote user X (formerly Twitter), quoted Daily Mail: . And another added: “Is this milk? What legendary things are that?[Harry] did? I ask the question seriously! What could he do?

“Private Harry”

After ten years in the British Army, where he rose to the rank of Captain, and two missions in Afghanistan as an air traffic controller and Apache helicopter pilot, ‘Private Harry’ will join a closed circle of aviation and aerospace ‘legends’. . If the statement angered, even shocked more than one person, it is not uncommon for some people to get into it. This circle indeed includes major, more or less “iconic” personalities such as Buzz Aldrin, Jeff Bezos, Tom Cruise, Elon Musk and even Saudi Prince Sultan bin Salman bin Abdelaziz Al Saud, who is considered the first Arab astronaut. In addition, it is currently unknown whether Harry or his wife, Meghan Markle, will attend the ceremony.
