“Speaking as a father of two alumni of this academy who remembers their passing out parades, I know they will be full of immense pride in witnessing you on parade,” Charles said.
King Charles III had a proud father moment Friday while addressing graduating cadets at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst.
“I am under no illusions as to how hard you have all worked over the past 44 weeks, and I hope you feel justifiably proud of your achievements. Of course, I know you would not be here without the tremendous support of your family and friends who, I am delighted to see, can join us in such numbers today,” the king continued.
While Charles himself did not attend Sandhurst, he did complete his military training at Royal Air Force Cranwell and Royal Naval College Dartmouth, drawing upon those experiences to relate to the new graduates in his remarks.
