Camilla has been praised for speaking with military men and women while paying tribute to fallen heroes.
The Duchess of Cornwall, 73, spoke via video call to members of the The Royal Lancers.
Here she recalled being moved to near tears when she visited the Commonwealth War Graves in Egypt back in 2006.
She said: “I had a huge lump in my throat.
“When you get out and see those graves stretching on into the horizon, it’s incredibly moving.
What did Camilla say?
“It was almost like a deja-vu as if I’d been there. I could almost hear the guns in the background. ”
Before saying: “I was almost speechless. Which doesn’t happen very often but I was.”
