PRINCE PHILIP saw action during World War 2 during his distinguished Naval career – and a former shipmate told how the Prince “saved his life” during one wartime engagement, over 60 years after the incident.

. Although Philip will not be at the Cenotaph tomorrow, the retired Duke still makes a point of honouring the Armed Forces, for example, at a rare engagement at Sandringham this summer when he received personnel in his role as Colonel-In-Chief of The Rifles. Prince Philip had a successful career in the Navy before the Queen ascended the throne in 1952, and he saw action in multiple theatres in World War 2.
