Im glad Harry will get a better homecoming than these wankers. The 3 on the right are the exception. They show the Brit "stiff upper lip" quite well.

We give the Bush twins secret service protection because the country could be held hostage if they were taken. Harry would be quite a high value target once his anonymity was broken.
There is a good chance he didn’t want to leave.
“Matt was a pain years ago when he wouldn’t link to FR because everyone here didn’t worship him.”
I thought that was because of a wave of antisemitism that rolled through this place in that day.
By serving with ground troops, he has done much more than any others British royals, including his father(parade soldier), and uncle Andy who got to take part in the Falklands by serving on a warship and enjoyed a visit from Koo Stark on his return voyage. My hats off to Harry. He’s done his family and nation proud.
Ease up on Drudge ya’ll.. it was leaked by a Aussie paper first.. Drudge just picked it up...

If someone else was going to leak this, let it be on their head. Drudge should have known better.
On FR, we know That “Loose lips sink ships”. Look under “Word Wrap: ON” when you post.
Well said. I have a hard time understanding how people, especially here, do not understand this. Give Harry credit here. He volunteered. Like it or not, he is a high value target and now that his cover is blown he indeed should be withdrawn from the battle field. You know, there is a reason high ranking officers are not saluted on the battlefield. The same principle applies here as well.
At least Harry didn't sit in his palace playing video games as he certainly could have.
You all want some cheese for your whine????? Here’s a hanky. I think it would be a great way to bring the scum out in the open.
Where does it even hint that hhis recll is ecause he is “too good” for a combat roll? I think they are doing the right thing — when the presense of a single trooper for one reason or another creates an additional hazard to his unit in the field, it is time to move him out.
I also think you would change your mine if a determined enemy hung a target on your head>
If you think the high command is doing the wrong thing, maybe you should look up the World War II history os the 8th Air Force’s 100th Bomb Group when the Germans put out special kill orders on it.
Good for them. Aren't those three Marines?

If the information was insecure enough for Drudge to be able to get it, then it was probably also insecure enough for jihadis to get it without Drudge's help. At least this way the Brits know they have leaks to plug regarding the Prince's security
Regards
I’ve got a great deal of respect for this kid, and the troops he’s serving with.
That respect doesn’t extend to whomever leaked this story (Drudge or otherwise).
God save the prince. (My darling husband did combat duty in Afghanistan, too.)
“And the MoD “leaked” the information to Drudge.”
Negative ...

Give him my thanks Shezza.
Best regards
Very good point.
Give me a break—at least he joined up and demanded combat. I admire this young man!
Saw him today on the news.
He was wearing a ballcap with a subdued AMERICAN FLAG on it.
Outstanding, soldier !!!
The only Royal to see combat since Andrew in the Falklands. He’s trying to be a normal guy. Good luck to him and kudos for his service.
You think so?
I don’t know, but I have seen reports that the British press knew about this and kept mum.
