In October 2006, Prince Philip made a surprise visit to British Army troops in Iraq. He spent time with personnel from The Queen's Royal Hussars deployed in Basra, who at the time were nearing the end of a six-and-a-half month tour in the country.

The Duke of Edinburgh was visiting as the regiment's Colonel-in-Chief, in what was his first trip to see British forces in Iraq.
