I'm not enamored with the news of British royalty. However, I give more kudos to the Brits for putting their precious children on the line than to the US leaders who do not. That aside, no child should be sent to such an ill-founded war.
Amazing! With only 10 weeks of military service, Prince Harry's reputation as a "young hell-raising party boy" has changed to that of "a fine young man!" And at the same time he has maintained the British royal family tradition of military service.

I still have a hard time believing he's related to Prince Charles. I think he looks more like Conan O'Brian than Charles.
After the Nazi dress-up fiasco, I think he had to do something like this to make up for it.

A few years ago I enjoyed watching the program featuring Prince Harry working at the orphanage in Africa. As far as him partying, it was probably equivalent to the Bush twins and many others his age and maybe less than President Bush did in his younger days. No matter how much Harry was protected, it took guts to go to Afghanistan, more guts than Bush ever showed when he was younger.

I mentioned to my friend in London how proud the Brit's must be of Prince Henry. Uh, no, they're really not. From what I'm told he's a bad boy. Where we might consider him adventurous or just sewing wild oats, the Brit's find his behavior borderline appalling. It really is a different culture.
Whoever the sire may be, the father is Charles.
