A BRITISH ROYAL

So a British Royal is on active duty in Afghanistan.

Reports are still sketchy, but he is reported to be ‘in theatre’, near the front, and to be sharing in the dangers consequent on such deployment.

I may be wrong, but I believe I heard one of the reporters saying that Ghurkas were near him or with him.

Her Majesty is reported to be delighted that the young Royal is ‘doing his duty’.

I am sure that much more info will be forthcoming.

I am reminded of other British 'uppers' who have served their country and of the American 'royals' who have served in the US Armed Forces.

The lists of those on both 'sides of the Pond' who have done so are really quite inspiring.

left coast lefties...eat your hearts out!!!!!!!!
