Combat Veteran Shares Incredible Princess Diana Story

Published|Updated

Princess Diana once visited an SAS compound, and it sounds like it was an awesome time.

I was recently joined on American Joyride by former SAS member Melvyn Downes to discuss a variety of subjects, and he shared an incredible story about the time Princess Diana visited the SAS with Prince William and Henry when they were little kids.

Yes, you read that correctly. Princess Diana once visited one of the greatest military units in the world so they could put on a show for her and her kids. If that's not awesome, then I don't know what is. Melvyn also shared his thoughts on what Princess Diana was like, the tragedy of her death and much more.

You can watch his full comments below about the time Princess Diana visited the unit starting around 1:47:00.
