Prince Harry appears<\/a> to have suffered a snub by the Royal Family<\/a> after being missed out of a key statement. To mark Armed Forces<\/a> Day, the official Royal Family social media accounts posted a special message to honour the day and pay tribute to all of those who serve in the forces.<\/p>\n As part of a series of images, the post also recounted the military service of several members of the Royal Family. It charted King Charles<\/a> ‘ naval career and him becoming a helicopter pilot as well as Prince William’s<\/a> time in the RAF as a search and rescue pilot. Another image paid tribute to the late Prince Philip<\/a> and his service in the Royal Navy during the Second World War.<\/p>\n Content cannot be displayed without consent<\/p>\n However, Harry, who served two tours of duty in Afghanistan<\/a> during his time in the Army, was not featured and was not mentioned anywhere in the post. Harry also helped to set up the Invictus Games for injured ex-servicemen and women but has been estranged from his royal relatives since he dramatically quit as a working royal five years ago.<\/p>\n And people were quick to point out Harry’s absence from the post, with one writing: “Where is Prince Harry<\/a>?” Another said: “As much as Harry isn\u2019t part of it any more he still did serve this day is about armed forces, not the royal family I still believe he still deserves the credit for this.”<\/p>\n While one added: “I don’t think Harry deserves to be left out he has probably the most active service of anyone since Prince Philip.”<\/p>\n Harry opened up about his military service in his memoir Spare. In the book, he revealed he killed 25 people while on his second tour of duty in Afghanistan. Harry was an Apache helicopter pilot at the time and said he flew on six missions that resulted in “the taking of human lives”.<\/p>\n It comes as Harry made a surprise trip to New York City last week where he emphasised the importance of ‘compassion’ at the Nexus Global Summit.<\/p>\n According to the organisation\u2019s website, the event on Friday brought together more than 350 of the world<\/a>‘s “most influential next-gen philanthropists, impact investors and social innovators” to “tackle global challenges and shape a better future for 2025 and beyond”.<\/p>\n Harry was an unannounced featured speaker for the event, where he discussed the impact of service and the importance of establishing stronger communities to tackle issues such as disconnection and social isolation.<\/p>\n x<\/p>\n He pointed to the work of his Archewell Foundation in fostering community and combating social isolation, both online and offline. Harry and the Duchess of Sussex founded the non-profit organisation in 2020.<\/p>\n He told the crowd: “As the world gets harder, as people\u2019s lives become harder, compassion can shrink. The thing that gives me the most hope is the grassroots approach.<\/p>\n “Many of you here today are connected and involved with so many community solutions, because it\u2019s what energises all of you, and that service part is really what energises me as well.”<\/p>\n In his address, the duke also urged those in attendance to use their platforms to serve the wider community, telling the crowd: “Whatever you put out there, you get back.”<\/p>\n Harry met with the Nexus Australian delegation, made up of people and organisations working to address mental health and social media safety, and a Brazilian delegation of 12 young people striving to tackle inequality through education and volunteerism.<\/p>\n Get the inside scoop on the monarchy with Mirror Royal<\/p>\n WHATSAPP GROUP: <\/strong>Be first to get the biggest royal bombshells and exclusives to your phone by joining our Royal WhatsApp here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n We also treat our community members to special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners.
