Prince Harry at War?

Question

One of todays national newspapers has 8 pages all about Harry now correct me if im wrong but what about all the other young men and women that have been out there for a long time Im sure their familys would love to read about there child out there.If it was to really kick off out there Harry with out a doubt would be air lifted to safety leaving all the other young men and women to get on with it

Answer 1

Should read,Prince harry playing at war.Patrolling a deserted village ,Frightening stuff.

Answer 2

Rubbish.

Answer 3

i agree with you

he had a choice to go out there just like the rest of them

but its not his fault that the media is now focusing on him

you may be happy to know that he is being pulled out in a couple of days

Answer 4

FaddyO - His presence did not affect the security of fellow soldiers due to an agreement not to report it, The Drudge Report widely publicised his presence and made it unsafe for him and his fellow soldiers. He is now being pulled out to protect the other soldiers from increased risk of attack, nto to protect himself.

TaxedTilIDie - Harry was stationed 500 yards away from Taliban positions, that's close enough for a grenade/rocket launcher! Harry when not encuring safety for the troops under him by organising their locations and bombing of enemy positions was living in spartan conditions similar to any other soldier and sometimes went on patrol facing teh enemy steadfastly. Do not criticise if you have had no experience of war - those who are most famous will always be at most risk and the papers are more likely to report on someone we know rather than a random.

Answer 5

it all looked very relaxed to me .With film of him wandering through a deserted and obviously safe village , playing rugby and throwing smoke canisters to nowhere in particular .

   There seems to have been an awfull lot of tv crews etc monitoring his every move , all a PR stunt  by the royal family it seems .

    Now he has done his 10 weeks of "work" its back to a lavish and priveliged life .

Answer 6

Don't you just love England and their news ? Who cares about Prince Harry ? I'm from Italy and our news, is all about "where to dump the garbage" in Italy considering there is tons and tons in southern Italy on the streets !

Answer 7

absolutely. he signed up to be a soldier so I say leave him there, like the rest of the men and do his job.

Answer 8

what would happen if he got killed????

Answer 9

They do not care about ordinary citizens. The only thing they care about ordinary citizens is to PAY THERE TAXES! Cant have anything happen to there precious little prince charming swastika wearing darling.

Answer 10

He's a chocolate soldier,...Viva Republic

Answer 11

but he's famous and none of the other people out there are famous.  If you go through the same paper you will find pages about celebrities getting drunk, taking drugs etc.

Isn't it better that they are concentrating on someone who is actually doing something productive and helping the world rather than the usual rubbish in the papers

Answer 12

I totally agree with you.  As far as I'm concerned prince Harry is a spoilt kid who wanted to have a go at playing soldiers for a few weeks.  His presence probably put the lives of real soldiers at risk.  We'll now have the media calling Harry a hero.  Its a kick in the teeth for the real heroes out their fighting in Afghanistan

Answer 13

This was inevitable.  I wonder what Harry thinks ?  When you join any of the services you expect to have to do the job regardless of station or rank.
