Harry started his speech in German, greeting members of the country with their native tongue by saying “Guten Tag Deutschland!”
The Duke referenced joining over 2500 people including veterans and injured service members when he was last in Germany for the Invictus Games in Dusseldorf back in 2023.
Harry said: “My last visit to your remarkable country was to Düsseldorf two years ago for the Invictus Games, and it remains etched in my memory.
“The warmth, the enthusiasm, and the unwavering support shown by the German people for our global community of wounded service personnel was truly humbling. You certainly delivered on your promise to create a home for respect.
“That spirit of camaraderie, forged on the sports field, mirrors the unbreakable bond that connects veterans of all nations. We understand each other, regardless of flag or uniform, bound by shared experiences and an enduring commitment to service.
“Veterans are more than warriors – they are leaders. Living testaments to resilience and moral courage, they understand that loyalty must never lie with power alone, but with the people. With truth.”
During the video message, Harry was seen wearing numerous ceremonial medals that he was awarded in the past.
This included the Afghan Campaign medal, Golden Jubilee medal, Diamond Jubilee medal and Platinum Jubilee medal.
However, non-working members of the royal family are barred from wearing military uniforms to official state occasions and Harry was not allowed to wear the military uniform to theQueen’s processionfollowing herdeath.
After Harry stepped away from hisRoyal Familyduties he was also stripped of his honorary military roles.
But the Duke still wore hismedals on his suitat the coffin procession for the late Queen.
Speaking about service, Harry continued in his speech: “As someone who has worn the uniform and stood shoulder to shoulder with brothers-and sisters-in-arms from across the world – including many of you – I know that the weight of service is not carried lightly.
“We serve not to glorify war, but to protect peace. Not to follow a single voice, but to uphold a collective oat – to country, to people, and to the principles that bind us together as free nations.
“Germany has shown the world how memory, accountability, and unity can be turned into strength.”
Harry added how during “turbulent times”,, Germany’s role in safeguarding peace and stability in Europe “has never been more critical”.
He continued: “To the brave men and women of the Bundeswehr – a heartfelt thank you for your steadfast service to your country, to your people and to one another.
“Today is also a celebration of you, the values you stand for, the oath you took and the great country you stand to protect.
“Today, let us renew our commitment—together—to protect the freedoms that define who we are, to serve each other for peace, for dignity and for the enduring promise of democracy.
“Vielen dank und einen schonen tag.”
It comes just 24 hours after the Royals all came out in formal attire for Trooping the Colour.
Wills wore the Full Ceremonial Guard Order of the Welsh Guards yesterday during the parade.
Kate, meanwhile, looked elegant in an aquamarine Catherine Walker coatdress with ivory lapels and cuffs.
Both King Charles and Prince William were spotted wearing a black armband as they made their way down The Mall.
Those at the parade also held a minute’s silence following the devastating crash.
