Hey, what's the big deal. The peon who sends their son or daughter to the front line doesn't get special treatment or dispensations.

While I don't wish anyone ill, perhaps if he is placing his fellow soldiers in harms' way, then he should get a different job. That may be special treatment, but then, that's not the fault of the General Issue Soldier.

He wouldn’t be if they don’t know he is there. Now, everyone around him is in more danger because of a web master who feeds on gossip. Shame on Drudge.

Not at all. It is fine that the Prince wants to do what he trained for. It is fine that he wants to demonstrate some solidarity with the coalition partners of the UK, and it’s fine that the moral of the Brits there and elsewhere in uniform must be sky high. He’s a big boy and his decision has to be respected.

It is a super moral booster for the coalition and must truly convey the proper message to Taliban murderers... just my very humble opinion.

“The peon who sends their son or daughter to the front line doesn’t get special treatment or dispensations.”

Sure. But this fella just became Taliban target No 1, which not only multiplies his chances of catching a bullet by several thousand but also the ordinary men and women serving alongside him.

Drudge should be ashamed.

I’ve removed his page from my bookmarks and won’t be visiting it again.

And the 'Prince" didn't want or ask for "special treatment" - seems you've got a little envy showing? He can't help being born who he is - kudos to him for his service...

If pulled back, it still isn't 'special treatment' for him, but for the protection of everyone -
