Amazing night at Household Cavalry Museum to launch the Price of War Symposium. Thank you for supporting @RHChelsea and @TheHCF by purchasing Pomp & Circumstance. It is a book about what we can and must accomplish. Despite the doom merchants, we might be the best placed nation to weather the storms ahead.

The grandest of welcomes, for the closest of allies. 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
The UK Armed Forces uphold their reputation for world-class ceremonial as 1,300 personnel take part in a grand state welcome for US President Donald J. Trump.💂
The scale and spectacle of the ceremonial is unprecedented for a state visit - and there's still more to come. 🎺
