ARLINGTON, VA - MAY 10: Prince Harry of Great Britain, wearing his British Army ceremonial uniform of the Blues And Royals in his role as Captain Harry Wales (C), is accompanied by military officials during his visit to Section 60 of Arlington National Cemetery, where veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are buried, on May 10, 2013 in Arlington Virginia. During his visit to the US, Prince Harry will be undertaking engagements on behalf of charities with which he is closely associated, on behalf also of HM Government, with a central theme of supporting injured service personnel from the UK and US forces.

Excellent photos tomahawk, thanks for posting them.

On a somewhat related note was bored and browsing youtube last night and stumbled upon a couple videos of the changing of the guard at Arlington, awesome stuff to see such pride taken in the duties there to include some rather loud bystanders getting put in their place to maintain the respect that is due to the fallen.

Considering the number of signs posted all around the access to the viewing area requesting quite and respect, it is surprising that the guard has to remind people of this.

I understand Harry placing the wreath in Section 60, but I wonder if he visited any specific graves of people he may have served with during his tours.
