His behaviour was tame compared to the activities in many an O's Mess bar up and down the country.
I very much doubt that, even these days. Standards are unlikely to have slipped that far in the years since I retired from the RAF.

What vile practices some drunken squaddies allegedly get up to in secluded areas of some god-forsaken barracks is one thing, what an officer of the Household Division, third in the line of succession to the British throne, does in public is entirely another.

I consider that his Colonel-in-Chief should require him to resign his commission. Notwithstanding his prowess as an army helicopter co-pilot, his behaviour was far beneath that required of an officer.

Until he mends his ways, he is quite demonstrably not fit to hold the Queen's Commission.
