It continued, “Service has the power to transform lives. This week at the Ventura Training Center, Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, spent time with formerly incarcerated firefighters, men who protected our communities during wildfire season and are now continuing that service through long-term careers in fire service.”

“Thank you, Prince Harry, for taking the time to meet with our men and hear their stories. Their pride, leadership, and commitment are a testament to what’s possible when opportunity meets purpose,” the message concluded.
