☞ READ: From Harlem to the Royal Wedding

Folks might have noticed Harlem high school graduate Denton John riding behind the Queen's carriage this morning in full uniform. The 23-year-old New Yorker went to Wadleigh on 114th Street but also has British citizenship since John was originally born in Grenada.  After joining the British Army straight out of high school, the former schoolboy from Harlem is now part of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment and is directly responsible for protecting the Queen of England.  More in the Daily Mail: LINK.  Photo via CNN

  4. I'm not a big Royals watcher, but I gotta admit that's pretty cool.
