Prince Philip Hero Of A Time



Prince Philip, at 96, has retired after a final engagement as Captain General of the Royal Marines. He served with distinction in the Navy during World War Two and retired as a Commander in the early 1950s.





Here's the Old Buccaneer in a Bearskin





Inspecting the troops





Gauging up the Magic Messiah





In a British Warm





Sporting a topper





About to abuse a journalist, and who can blame him?





For me, Prince Philip rises up out of the mist like a man from another age and he is. His generation were raised at a time when Rule Britannia was more than an amusing song in the Albert Hall. The qualities of an Empire were writ large in them.





Indomitable arrogance, perhaps, but lest you forget, how much more preferable than our near-invisible, satanic, transnational elite.

Well done, Prince Philip, you're a hero.
