Bearing in mind he is also wearing the Golden Jubilee medal (which was given out in 2002 when HRH was only 18 and not even in the military) I suspect he has had the rules waived and been given special permission to wear both. There has to be some perks! http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...lies/wink2.gif
Always been standard practice for members of the royal family to receive coronation and jubilee medals as a matter of course, whether or not they are serving in the armed forces. If you look at Prince Charles & Princess Anne's medals you will see they both have the 1953 Coronation Medal, at which time they were 4 & 2 years old respectively!
