Prince Andrew, The Duke of York, was in Dartmouth to visit the Britannia Royal Naval College on Wednesday (11/04).

He returned to the college as the representative of his father, The Duke of Edinburgh, who is the Lord High Admiral.

The BRNC is where Prince Andrew completed his own initial naval training in 1979 - he completed 22 years of service in the Royal Navy.

He was there to take the salute, on behalf of the Duke of Edinburgh, at a parade to mark the successful end of initial training for the latest group of Officer Cadets and celebrate their formal commissioning as Royal Navy Officers.
