Prince Harry - becoming an officer!

[Loopylou22]

I thought the pic of him in The Sun today smiling as his Nana (the queen) came down the line to speak to the officers was just sooooo sweet!!!!

Anyone agree?

[Farmie]

Absolutely not. He's now a fully trained and qualified killing machine. And hurrah for that.

[Loopylou22]

no harm in having a heart though!!! hurrah for that!

[Farmie]

Do they still teach young recruits to thrust bayonets into suspended straw-stuffed fuzzy wuzzies at Sandhurst? I'd like to think they do that even before all that interminable square-bashing.

[Ward-Minter]

Good luck to the lad. It's all about breeding which makes an officer a well respected gentleman. One can not question the Princes' geneology.

I am sure his wonderful mother is looking down at him with tears in her beautiful eyes.

[smudge]

My sentiments too Wardy!

I was so busy yesterday & last night that I missed the parade - I only saw a snippet on the news at 11:00pm. They all looked so proud & happy.

Well done & good luck to them all.

[libertie]

Well hopefully Prince Harry and his brother will both become responsible,happy adults who have something positive to contribute to society......despite their parentage!

[jake-the-peg]

All about breeding? ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would you get on a plane if the pilot had never flown before but came from a long line of aviators?

It's all about upbringing I think

[jump79]

Is he going to be sent to Iraq or Afghanistan soon? And will the royal family allow it?

[zipadeedodah]

I agree with you Loopylou22, I thought the same when I saw the picture in the paper! If anything, made a change to see the Queen smiling like that!

[Loopylou22]

Thank you Zipa its nice to see someone else who doesnt take it to seriously!!!

A smile says a lot!

[hopalong]

Why is 'so sweet' hundreds of other young men where there so what was so sepcial about this little parasite

[hopalong]

Jump79, it's not uo to the royal family if Harry goes to Iraq or not

[geo0939]

Lack of discipline to smile on parade.

[jump79]

hopalong- no its not, but they do have some control over him and may discourage him from doing that..

[hopalong]

jump79. He joined the army it is not up to Harry nor can the the queen discourage him. He will go to war if his superior officers tell him to go whether he wants to or not

[jump79]

hopalong, I read it was Harry who actually wanted to go there, and not because his superiors wanted to.
Anyway, my question was not serious and it doesn't bother me if he goes or no.

[bobtheturkey]

they all need to live in the real world bunch of parasites the lot of them

[bernardo]

They do live in the real world, they pay for themselves many times over, and they are not parasites.

[hopalong]

bernado they are parasites the tax payer pays for them all

[johnlambert]

Yep his father Major James Hewitt must be very proud
