Fresh off a trip to New York City with Meghan Markle that sparked some outrage, Prince Harry is planning to return to the city in some weeks.
Harry will be a guest of honor at the 2021 Salute to Freedom Gala on November 10, the Intrepid Museum announced in a press release on Monday.
He ‘will present the inaugural Intrepid Valor Awards to five service members, veterans, and military families living with the invisible wounds of war’, the release states.
The five service members to be honored in the inaugural awards ‘have gone above and beyond the call of duty and persevered through extraordinary circumstances,’ Intrepid Museum president Susan Marenoff-Zausner stated.
Marenoff-Zausner said the organization is ‘so grateful to Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex for honoring and amplifying the stories of these heroes and helping to raise awareness for mental health support for our men and women in uniform’.
The announcement comes shortly after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex returned to California after a three-day trip to New York. They were criticized for flying home in an environmentally unfriendly private jet despite their public statements fighting climate change.
