King Charles tells veteran to 'keep drinking whisky' during county visit
Lancashire Evening Post
|June 10, 2025
The King praised a 101-year-old veteran as "amazing" and told him to keep drinking whisky during a visit to Lancashire.
Charles met Richard Brock, who served in the D-Day landings, at a reception at Lancaster Castle yesterday and remembered him from a visit to Normandy last year.
After asking Mr Brock's age, the King said: "You are fantastic."
As he left, he added: "Keep drinking the whisky."
Mr Brock, who served with the East Lancashire Regiment, said: "He just told me I was amazing for my age."
His son Tony Brock, who attended the reception with him, said: "He mentioned a nip of whisky and said to keep taking it."
