Why is Prince Harry so Hairy

For those who do not know Prince Harry of England (third in succession to the throne) is back in London after serving ten days on the front lines in the War In Afghanistan.

Being back in london is no secret that fact that he was deployed was.

Harry said it was great to feel somewhat normal for a change since he was being treated just like a regular solider in a television interview.

Normal?

Did anyone happen to notice young Harry's appearance? He still possessed his golden locks in full effect. Which is odd becuase the Queen's Army forces all active fighters to have a shave head; much like in the U.S., (but I understand "normal" people get special treatment all the time)

What about his division rank. For a young 20-year-old with no wartime experience Harry was in one of the higher ranking divisions in Afghanistan. Again, I understand "normal" people get special treatment all the time)

Now I am not trying to bash the the Prince but spare me with the normalcy. In the six years of fighting in Afghanistan I do not know anyone who was discharged after ten days.

The Bristish Army said he could be too much of a target for the Taliban.

"Too much of a target"

Then why send Harry on the front lines in the first place if you were afriad of being targeted.

Ooh Ooh I know I know becuase it was a PR move.

Now the Prince can claim war time experience, a national hero and an insult to the U.S. for being bashed after Britian pulled out of Iraq.

Britain was willing and did send one of its biggest celebrities and royal family member to a war for an ally. When no Congressional or Executive member have sent their childrens. Would GW send his twins to combat? I think we all know the answer to that but if England goes to war soon it would only be fair to send our little angels to the front line.

So thanks Prince Harry you're truly a nobleman.
