Considering that he ended his post with a question mark...what?

Rethorical question. I suppose.

Perhaps, but lives have been wasted for far pettier things. Even in modern times, Royals have gone to war before with no problems.

If it's kept secret in what unit he serves in then I don't see a problem him being there: how many terrorists would actually recognize him under the camouflage mask, especially if he's inside the tank most of the time? I find it respectable that Prince Harry wants to serve his country, bringing the royals closer to ordinary people.

what i think is that if he wants to go let him just do not tell anyone so no one knows he is there

I think more people would respect him if he went.

Yeah I reckon so too. Just not worth it, guess theres down side to being sickly rich and famous. :uhm: :naughty:

Eh. He'd just be a gigantic target and endanger the lives of those around him. I respect the man just for wanting to go to Iraq so bad.

This is the first time I have reason to actually have faith in Prince Harry, considering the other things he has done, however it's an interesting decision. On the one hand, by him not being allowed to go, should it not create some sort of precedent to which other soliders should not go/still be there, but on the other and like he said, he joined the army to fight. That is his occupation now, not just being a Prince, so he should do it.

Personally, I don't think he or anyone else should go for this 'war', but that would be a different topic. Nah, I support him on this one.

I think that if that is where the British Army deems his skills are most needed, then so be it. If the British Army has a good reason to deploy him elsewhere, let them. He's a soldier, his superiors make the choices now.
