King Charles gives Prince William a military title with close ties to Prince Harry

King Charles III has handed over a military role he held for three decades to Prince William in a move that is sparking controversy because of the role’s close ties to Prince Harry.

Charles on Monday presented William, his eldest son, with the title of Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps in a military ceremony at the Army Aviation Centre in Hampshire, England.

With the title, William is now the head of the regiment that his younger brother, Harry, served in during his time in the British Army.

Harry, who now lives in the United States, served as a British Army officer for 10 years.

During his decade of military service, which ended in 2015, Harry rose to the rank of Apache helicopter commander. Known as Capt. Harry Wales in the Army, he was deployed to Afghanistan twice, from 2007 to 2008 and then again from 2012 to 2013.

In 2012, the British Defense Ministry named Harry the best front-seat pilot, or co-pilot gunner, from his class of more than 20 fellow Apache helicopter pilots.
