COMMENTS:
On one hand, the Royal Family has gained the respect that they're happy to risk one of their own for the politics of the country. To be fair, the British Royal Family has always risked its own in military conflicts, but then they are fighting for their own interests far more than most soldiers.
Tony Blair said he 'would be delighted' if one of his children decided to go off and serve in Iraq. Didn't sound convincing to me, though.....
And, on the other hand, it would be a convenient way to get rid of the embarrassment that is Harry (lets face it he's not Royal by blood....) and yet raise much-needed sympathy for the Royals. Let's face it, no-one saw them shed a tear over the Queen Mum, Princess Margaret, and certainly not Diana. For Harry, they might just manage it. He is William's half-brother, at least!
Plus let's state the obvious - anyone serving in Iraq (or living there through no fault of their own) is in danger. I suppose the argument that his regiment will be in extra danger is a fair one, though the military argue that security is good enough that no Iraqis will know where he's posted.

Okay, I'll bite. Sonce those *lovely* FOurth Estate folk have been kind enough to advertise *exactly* where HRH will be serving, right down to the location...

Indubitably.

and he could pretend that he is Harry Potter too for the talent show. Seriously, he need to go and see what it is like and identify with the troops.
Voted : Yes, dressed as a Nazi.
Hell yes! The spawn of "Lady" Diana and James Hewitt deserves nothing less than an insurgents bullet in his weed-smoking, swastika wearing, smirking, ginger face.
What do you mean not royal by blood?
