I read a story about this
where the other soldiers said they'd all would wear red wigs and t-shirts saying "I'm Harry".

Point well made, Talion. And you're right. The generals never seem to
get near the action, so... But, still, I believe that those opposed to the occupational forces would do their utmost to kill or capture the prince.

My wife and I discussed this last night. I said I'd love to be under Prince Harry's command in Iraq. I figured he'd be but so far removed from the fighting there'd be no reasonable chance he'd see action or specific danger. After all, how many of those multiple-star generals do we hear of getting killed or wounded? Keep the media away, stick him in the same rooms with those generals for a few months, pin a medal on his chest, and send him home a war hero. Of course I don't blame them for changing their minds. If the enemy ever got their hands on him, the results would be disastrous.
