Let's follow the "increased risk to his mates" "reasoning" for a minute.
Yes, the baddies will try to "get Harry" extra hard because of who he is.
They will also want to try extra hard to "get" the sons/daughters of multi-millionares, bankers, oil executives, high-level politicians, Generals/Admirals... ad nauseum...
if they learn they are there, and can get good pics to identify them with.
Does that mean that we need to exempt all of those from serving in Iraq/Afganistan too?
Are the only people we can send into the fighting "those who will not bring increased risk to their mates"?
That means that the poor & unknown are the only ones who will be allowed to fight our wars, and to die for their country.
Nice choice, isn't it?
Cut the crap... the bleeding-hearts have been screaming for the "sons of privelige" to be placed at risk of their parent's policies for decades, and now they complain when they get their wish granted?
The only ones in this situation who have my respect, or to whom I will pay any attention, are Cornet Wales and his mates.
Bravo Zulu to them all!
