Prince Harry meets 65-strong team of wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans who have been selected to represent U.K. at fifth Invictus Games.
Prince Harry joked and laughed at an event Tuesday revealing the members of the U.K. team for the fifth annual Invictus Games, which will be held next year in the Netherlands.
British Royal Air Force veteran Rachel Williamson was named as team captain, making her the U.K.'s first female captain. Rossall suffered a knee injury in 2013 and had to have a total knee replacement two weeks ago. But that hasn't stopped him from competing in shot-put, discus, rowing and power-lifting. He lifted 286 pounds during the trials.
Prince Harry founded the Invictus Games as an international version of the Warrior Games, which is organized annually by the U.S. Department of Defense, and which the prince attended in 2013. "Let's put aside the tabloid drama, the media wars at the moment; this is what matters to Harry," said ABC News royal contributor Omid Scobie about Prince Harry's work."He's been all about charity work with veterans, making sure that they're noticed that the invisible injuries are front and center. That's what the Invictus Games is all about."
