Is this a genuine case of “from riches to rags?”

I have respect for Harry, I also accepted that he has made mistakes, but I admire his determination that he wanted to Serve.

Yep, Harry is the ‘greatest living Englishman’ alive today! Whenever we see him on telly, we shall have in the background dame Bonnie Tyler singing ‘Holding Out For A Hero’! Harry is also the greatest living soldier on Earth showing inate leadership abilities whereever he goes! Dear God Shane, WAKE UP!! It’s pretty clear what is going on. The Royals have had shi*e headlines since the 1987 debacle, and they are pushing the ‘Ginger Ninja’ for all it’s worth ( i bet harry is one of the more popular royals in polling). We shall have the Harry OK & Hello interview with piccies from Afghanistan (tent furnished by Yah Interiors- drinks by Pimms), and the week after we shall have harry in versace Y-fronts doing a Beckham! I’m buying that!

My reaction to Harry’s deployment is a bit like Chris Rock’s stance on gays in the military: “Let him fight… ’cause I ain’t fighting!”

Journalistic ethics? What are they?

Simon It is easy to knock! - it was not Harry’s choice to be born into Royalty, but Diana did everything she could to bring William and Harry up in a more natural way.

When did you return from Afghanistan or Iraq, I know I would not like to be there, but I admire all who do serve there, never remember any of Tony Blair’s boy’s serving - he was the one who sent out boy’s!

Jaybs- yes, it is easy to ‘knock’- Hewitt’s lad may be easy on the eye, but get a grip, he’s not ‘John Matrix’ (ie)Commando) or bloody ‘Rambo’. I find all this ‘Harry in Afghanistan’ guff thoroughly ghastly. Next we will have the ‘Daily Mail’ commeratorive magazine showing HRH in magnificent poses in Afghanistan- all 11,035 pages of it:- Harry with ‘the lads’; Harry with Pimms in his water canteen; Harry with shirt off in the desert….To make matters worse, Harry is on record saying he was the happiest he’s ever been- IN AFGHANISTAN! What!!! And wtf has it got to do with the price of cheese whether i’ve been to Afghannie? I sure as heck ain’t leaving the UK! All in the armed forces have my sympathy they are put in such a situation by our dishonest/disreputable government.
