Camilla, 76, met members of the Royal Lancers regiment and veterans at their barracks in Catterick Garrison, North Yorkshire, for the first time since she became its Colonel-in-Chief
Queen Camilla made history today, looking stunning in a military-inspired outfit as she took part in her first Royal engagement as Colonel-in-Chief of the Royal Lancers.
She completed the look with a matching red beret adorned with the regimental brooch and another Royal Lancers brooch, once owned by the former monarch, pinned to her coat. She later presented five medals to deserving recipients and explored the officers' mess, where she encountered retired Major Phil Watson, author of Their Greatest Hour, which details the 12th Lancers' role in the 1940 Battle of Dunkirk.
The Queen expressed her heartfelt connection to the Royal Lancers as she was gifted a silver model of a lancer on horseback, remarking that she would "treasure it" and reflecting on her father's pride in her role. "I know wherever my father is, he'd be so pleased I've got this role," she shared.
