No, he has been selling photographs of his sister-in-law.

@DT - lol

[DTCwordfan]

some folk with humour loss obviously.....

[dotty.]

[craft1948]

So because I think your comment was crass, I am having a sense of humour loss?

@dotty - I'm all for Harry playing soldiers. All Princes need a hobby. In history they have hunted Tigers or big game in Africa. In modern times this is no longer acceptable , so he hunts and kills Taliban Muslims in Afganistan.
But it does endanger the troops who dont have SAS protecting them ,like he does.

Your opinion, craft.

I hope all at Bastion are safe but this will raise the subject of whether Harry acts as a magnet for Taliban (and others) action. It almost makes you wonder is there is a wider "Iranian?" inspired broad-front attack going on with the West at the moment with the news from other hives of Muslim action (Sanaa, Cairo, Sudan etc).

[dotty.]

that's a different discussion entirely, if he's there he's in the same danger he other troops. sas or not,

[Prudie]

Nobody out in Afghanistan can be accused of playing soldiers. There are a lot of civilians out there too. I hope no-one is seriously hurt.

[Jeza]

When Harry went to Afghanistan I thought about him being a prime target, so thus endangering the other troops. Is he really protected by the SAS?

[SIRandyraven]

Of course he has protection.

[SIRandyraven]

He is not in same danger as other troops.
As a high value target, do you really think he will be put in danger ?
His SAS protection officers will die protecting him, it's there duty.

[DTCwordfan]

His danger is probably forms of mortar fire but I bet, even then, there are senior officer bunkers to protect the top brass from incoming fire.
