“A disabled Afghanistan veteran completing a grueling charity run through London got a special surprise at the finish line Tuesday — a pat on the back from Prince Harry.”
TODAY reports that Harry, 30, became friends with the double amputee after they rode on the same plane back from a tour of duty in Afghanistan.
“McBean, a former commando, was being evacuated and was so badly injured that medics feared he would die during the journey. But he made a tremendous recovery, and now has a career as a businessman and motivational speaker.”

I am confused as the original story on Today link shows a different man with Harry…Where did this photo come from? The original shows a black man.
We have no permission to use photos from the source, and so used a photo from Walter Reed, which is in the USA. The race was in London.
