Good on him, the kid wanted to go, the MOD got him out there without the jackals finding out. Good work.

Now of course, we will have a week of media frenzy

Glad to see that he got to go in the end. He wanted to join and be able to fight, not sit in a headquaters and stick pins in a map.

He will forced to come home now, but he will try and sneak back again in the near future I think!

Prime Minister Gordon Brown said Prince Harry has been an “exemplary” soldier, adding: “The whole of Britain will be proud of the outstanding service he is giving.”
When was the last time the PM said something like that for the regular grunts?

Yes good on him. But as I said in this thread: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=131877

Okay just read this article: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main...wdrudge128.xml

And here is the scumbags who broke the news: http://www.drudgereport.com/flashph.htm

I think Mr Matt Sludge Drudge should be put on the first plane to Helmand province, Afghanistan to experience some cold hard realities. What a twat he is.

Big salute to Harry.

No doubt about it. He is a man, doing what men do when their country calls. He did it without fanfare. He went to school to learn to lead men in battle and thats what he is doing.

Now media, forget about him and let him do his duty

way to go,

he is making a good example, and also a good morale boost for the troops showing that he is one of them.

and that the Taliban now knows he is there, he better carry some extra ammo

He is coming home.

I don't believe the press should had been with there agreement hush hush for the last ten weeks. So what if he is the bullet magnet, stop poncing around and let Harry do his job and serve his country.

I AM IN A REALLY FOUL MOOD NOW!

What the hell is up with people in this country? I'm surrounded by gutter sniping wet communist liberal bleeding heart scum bags. I listen to a radio phone in and the amount of liberals saying he should not be out there he should be here going around shacking hands!

Harry is doing what he wants to do and let him do his job, Harry dose not want to be wrapped up in cotton wool he wants to serve Queen and country so let him do what he wants.
