Prince Andrew used his HRH title as be posted on his ex-wife's Instagram account to reflect on his time in the Falklands War, saying he returned a “changed man”
The Queen's eldest son said he entered the conflict "full of bravado" but returned a "changed man". The post appeared on his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson's Instagram page.
The Queen stripped Andrew of his honorary military roles in January and he gave up his HRH style in a dramatic fallout from his civil sex case. In the first Instagram post, Sarah wrote: "I asked Andrew this morning for his reflections on the anniversary of his sailing from Portsmouth to the Falkland Islands 40 years ago."
"I put away childish things and false bravado and returned a man full in the knowledge of human frailty and suffering. Andrew also recalled being shot at, writing: "I was flying and saw a chaff shell fired from one of our ships that passed not that far in front of us."The terror that that was going to be that, just for a moment, has had a lasting and permanent effect on me."
