The funeral
Prince Philip is expected to be given a military funeral with a private service held at St George’s Chapel in Windsor and the burial in Frogmore Gardens.
The date has yet to be confirmed but is due to be staged eight days after Prince Philip s death - meaning it could be held on April 17.
Members of the Commonwealth, a group of 54 countries headed by the monarch, were also invited to honor Philip. The Australian Defense Force began its salute at 5 p.m. local time outside Parliament House in Canberra, and New Zealand planned to offer its own tribute on Sunday.
Philip joined the Royal Navy as a cadet in 1939 and once had a promising military career. In 1941, he was honored for his service during the battle of Cape Matapan off the coast of Greece, when his control of searchlights aboard the HMS Valiant allowed the battleship to pinpoint enemy vessels in the dark. Philip rose to the rank of commander before he retired from active duty.
