Would Harry Wales have a commissioned rank if he was just a commoner?

Question

William, press reports once suggested his A-level results were rigged/has assistance - does anyone really think that Harry would have a degree or a commission if it weren't for accident of birth?

Answer 1

If he had the right qualifications yes it is not just the royals who hold a commission

Answer 2

Being accidentally born into royalty automatically confers Military title's....

I.e. the princes royal holds various military titles and she has yet to serve in any branch of the military!

Answer 3

Not as easily.

Answer 4

Not even as a Cook !!

edit

Two points down

Well alright As a Spud Basher

Answer 5

No! he would probably have done some time by now for drink and drug related abuse/crimes. But he gets away with it coz he has a silver spoon up his@rse.  

AND, you hit it right on the head with the "commoner" bit, as that is exactly what these parasites think about us.  When it comes down to it they would step on us and wipe their feet as though we were a piece of dogs s**t  

AND, the galling thing about it is that some of these "mindless" commoners actually support them.

Answer 6

He went to Sandhurst military college, he was commissioned as were others in his year as a lieutenant, as were 99 % who were commoners

Answer 7

no hed have to work at it like the rest of them

Answer 8

Of course he would have a commission. He graduated from Sandhurst. That guarantees it. Plus he had an excellent education. If he was going to be granted special favours he would have a higher rant than a Lieutenant.

Answer 9

I prefer not to speculate on things I will never know the truth of for certain.

Answer 10

Providing he worked his butt off.

Answer 11

Like they're going put that dopey little brat in real combat situations and subject him to any real danger, eh? His nan would have a hissy fit if that royal chav had to tie his own boot laces, much less take on the threats faced by real soldiers.

Best he sticks to making castles in a sand pit out of the way between rolling the occasional spliff while the real (common) heroes get the job done and cope with the real menaces.

Royal waste of space that he is.

Answer 12

Sandhurst Military Academy is the British Army's officer training school, and is open to anybody who meets their admissions criteria. Since that is where he was trained and was awarded his commission anyone would have the same opportunity.

Answer 13

William did not get any assistance in his A-Levels.

He did fail his first year of his History of Art degree and swapped courses.

But that's supposed to be a secret.

Answer 14

This young man cannot do right for doing wrong. He is SERVING HIS COUNTRY FFS!!!

Let me return to the asker a Q...would Harry Wales be slagged off for having a few drinks in a nightclub if he were a commoner? I think not.

By the way, thanks to the american blabbermouth who told the world where Harry was. You might not care if he gets blown to bits, but what about the men he works alongside?

Answer 15

Give JT the 10 points.

Manxbike are you my doppleganger.

Answer 16

ye, anyone with a levels or a degree in a certain field can join as a commisioned officer. just check the army careers website.

Answer 17
