They also serve

What an interesting little puzzle. It makes perfect sense that the prince would want to serve as an ordinary soldier, and it also makes sense that that's impossible. It's a sort of advance-Saving Private Harry, or Cornet Harry, anway.

It'd also be nice to know how he feels about Iraq itself. Is he the typical international law blatherer, like any Democrat, or does he see merit in standing up to terror? (Tony Blair was on BBC this morning, standing up to the usual lunacy from the Beeb, and doing such a nice job of it. You think of George W., and you just sigh.)
