Well that didn't last long did it, it is said he doesn't want to be separated from his wife and forthcoming child.
/// William has said that he wants to be a 'hands on' father and will not take a job that requires him to be away from his young family. ///
I wonder how all those other 'full time' armed force personnel, who also have wives and families, feel when they regularly carry out six month tours of active duty, not in nearby peaceful Anglesey, but in far off dangerous Afghanistan?

No one can deny that he has certainly 'done his bit'.
Maybe you need to read the whole link yourself AOG. I too think the privatisation of search and rescue operations played a big part in his decision.
Furthermore, Servicemen in a similar position do not have the added factors of Royal engagements to attend (the article says his are set to increase) to nor the weight of expectation of heir to the throne.
Cut the lad some slack, I'm sure there'll be a news story involving non-whites along shortly for you to post about.

I think he's done a great job as a S&R pilot - he couldn't go to frontline duties so has 'put in a shift' in a skilful job rescuing people off mountains, cliffs and the like in hazardous situations. BBC Wales has been running a documentary series called Helicopter Rescue showing him, and all the other aircrew, at work - interesting stuff

Apology accepted, although I did not read your post, but I guess it must have been offensive enough for the Ed to remove it.
If that was the reason, why do you deem it necessary to be like that over a simple headline?
I presume it must have been in reference to the Royal Air Force abbreviation.
Well I have tried and tried to make an offensive remark about that, but I just cannot, and here's me an ex RAF person.
