He’ll be honored with a service award in celebration of his Invictus Games.
Harry is this year’s Pat Tillman Award for Service honoree, selected for his 'tireless work in making a positive impact for the veteran community through the power of sport,” according to a press release from the network.
“Sport was the magic that I witnessed,” he said of the experience. “Having just come back from Afghanistan myself, seeing the wounded, injured and sick and seeing the effect this was having on all the families, and just the weight—the load on defense and on the individuals and on the rehabilitation programs. There just wasn't enough being done.” The first Games were held in London in 2014, with participants from 13 countries. Now, Invictus welcomes competitors from 23 countries.
