Third, actually, after his father and brother.

GO HARRY! May you be safe, but good on you for a good attitude!

More fellows like this I say, and less panty-waists all around.

Any chance he could shame his father into . . . some sort of . . . welllll . . . perhaps mine clearing duty?

. . . though I realize that given the choice between tampon duty and mine clearing duty there'd be no doubt of his selection.

But there must be a way to sideline his royal arrogance in favor of either of his sons.

Actually, probably any number of Charles' servants would make a better king.

I'm not one of Charles' fans, but he's no coward. He sure didn't have to volunteer for flight duty in '68 or stay in the service until '76. He's sort of a Wesley Clark figure; Clark volunteered for combat duty in Vietnam and asked to be sent to a rifle company that would see action. A sniper hit him 4 times during an ambush, and Clark still organized a counterattack. Yet he's a total dip who has no clue about that the WOT involves. Charles is the same; he doesn't see the Londonistan threat and he has some moral problems, but that doesn't make him cowardly.
