The black-and-white image, which depicts Prince Philip dressed in uniform, is a reminder to Britain of his longrunning career in the Royal Navy.
The duke joined the armed forces at the age of 18, graduating as a top cadet from the Britannia Royal Navy College. He went on to serve in World War II, during which time he became one of the youngest ever lieutenants at 21.
Prince Philip's naval career came to an end in 1951, but he remained involved in the armed forces.
After his departure from on-the-field military duties, he was appointed Admiral of the Sea Cadet Corps, Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Cadet Force, and Air Commodore-in-Chief of the Air Training Corps.
