On October 13, as Colonel-in-Chief of the Royal Corps of Army Music, the Countess of Wessex visited the Royal College of Military Music in Hampshire to open the new Higher Training Wing. The Countess raised a flag to mark the opening of the new building, and met with student bandmasters. The Royal Corps of Army Music provides musical support to the Army and also the entire defense community. The Countess of Wessex wore a patch-pocket fitted jacket by Victoria Beckham.
