Prince William carried out his first rescue mission in his new job as a search and rescue helicopter pilot, lifting an ill man from an off-shore gas rig, a royal spokesman said Tuesday.
The 28-year-old, who is second in line to the throne, was scrambled into action on Saturday, co-piloting a Royal Air Force (RAF) Sea King helicopter to a gas platform in the Irish Sea.
It was his first rescue job since graduating two weeks ago.

He reminds me of President Bush.
Yeah, he can jump the rest to be the next King, AFAIC.
Copy that. The best thing that could happen to England would be if Granny and Daddy both kick the bucket at the same time.
I am assuming William is next in line; I forget who's next after Charles..
Queen Liz is alright BUT her POS German husband can die anytime.
The succession after Charles is William, Harry and Andrew. Not sure whether Anne is ahead of Andrew’s kids.
Staged for a spoiled royal.
Screw you!
Charles took himself out of the succession when he divorced.
Pointless sneer.
Staged for a spoiled royal.
Not a smart remark.
“Staged for a spoiled royal.”
Save the class envy for the Dems. You allegedly are not a Dem.
No, Chuck’s been talking about it in recent years. Still, I suspect Liz knows he couldn’t handle it and is only hanging in there until William and Harry (the spare) mature. I also suspect she now wishes she’d been nicer to Diana.
Good for him! That will be a story for the stricken man to tell at the Pub..... He’s miles ahead of his dad in being King of England....

Good for him. A fine lad.
“Out of the blue of the western sky comes Sky, uh, Prince”
Chuckie’s sons do seemed to have turned out to be real men somehow. I guess their father is a real embarrassment to them.
seemed = seem
