“Some big shot is flying into Dover this morning or so they told me.”
“Who told you, Jack?”
“The Captain. He wouldn’t say who it was. Very hush hush and all.”
“I wonder why such a secret?”
The three men drove the tank toward the Dover airfield. They were part of the artillery detail that was scheduled to greet the plane of the incoming dignitary. U.S. dignitaries would be at the foot of the stairway to the plane, standing on the red carpet. They didn’t know it would be the President.
Jack said, “It must be someone really important for them to bring them in secretly to Dover since we normally have the funeral and mortuary duties.”
“Strange use of such a big runway,” commented one of the men, as they lined up in formation.
A British Air Force jet landed and taxied into place. Out walked a small boy and Prince William, second in line to the British throne. All the men clapped when little Prince George waved. The men were shocked when they found out later that Prince William was going to fly with the American Air Force during maneuvers in South Korea.

I think that would shock everyone if he was to fly over Korea.
Not sure if you have heard of the change in monarchy. Queen Elizabeth has effectively “sacked” Prince Charles and now Prince William is heir to the throne. The Queen said that the public would associate with the younger royal. Charles was, as you can imagine, slightly upset of this and wouldn’t speak to William for a while.
