David Beckham embarked on a trip to Afghanistan on Friday to visit British troops that are stationed there.
The 35-year-old departed from RAF Brize in Oxfordshire and will make the surprise visit to 9,000 soldiers currently based in the Helmand province, reports BBC News.
"I have nothing but admiration for these young men and women and it makes me very proud to be British," he said.
"I've wanted to visit Afghanistan for a long time and I hope that in some small way it helps remind everyone at home what an amazing job they are doing out here in very difficult conditions. I feel very humble."
