Prince William, Britain’s second-in-line to the throne shared his experiences as an emergency pilot…
Tuesday in a BBC documentary released during National Air Ambulance Week,
Sitting in the open side door of the air ambulance with Capt. James Pusey…
Prince William says his most challenging case had to do with a patient who had suffered burns and who was “beyond help.”
William says “there are some very sad, dark moments and you know we talk about it a lot. That’s the best way of dealing with some of the situations.”
“When I put my air ambulance hat on, and I come here and I fly, I’m one of the team,” Prince William said. “Most of us here are ex-military, so we come from the same mold, and we have the same sort of very bad sense of humor.”
Though the hours can be demanding, William thinks the benefits outweigh the difficulties.
Prince William has plenty of responsibilities, between his royal engagements and his fatherly duties raising son, Prince George, and daughter, Princess Charlotte. But the 34-year-old royal is also very devoted to his work with the East Anglian Air Ambulance.
