their main problem is not whether Harry can take the pressure of coming under fire in action but whether the lives of the men fighting alongside him will be more at risk because he is regarded as a trophy target by insurgents. A reasonable concern, I must say.
Nonetheless, I hope something is worked out so that the Lieutenant can see action with his comrades. Good for him!

I don't think the bad guys could tell Prince Harry from Prince.

A reasonable concern, I must say. I think it's a reasonable concern, but I also think it will mean very little in the real tactical environment.
