I just saw on CNN.com that its 'Breaking News" that prince Harry is fighting in Afghanistan, other than the fact he is a prince. Why should him fighting in Iraq be any more of a big deal than anyone else's son serving their country?

Ultimately, it shouldn't, but his high profile (especially his family connections) makes him a particular target for the enemy.

It isn't more of a big deal. The problem is that his high profile makes him a very attractive target, which adds to the danger he, and more importantly his colleagues, would face. For this reason his presence there wasn't made public. Unfortunately putting soldiers' lives in even more danger than they already were is a minor issue to the journalist who broke this story.

Add two eggs and stir well. Add flour and water and some vanilla flavor. Bake at 350 degrees and turn twice before done. Feeds 4 and there will be plenty of leftovers. Don't forget the powdered sugar as a nice accent. Also you can add raisins and also season to taste. Once you try it you will be sure to return for more

What the hell, that was months, even years ago IIRC. They only told everyone he was fighting in Afghanistan after he returned home, so the Taliban would not know. EDIT: oh, this was asked feb 2008. My bad.

It's great that he chose to go. How many of the Bush kids went? Their Dad sent our sons and daughters, but neither of his daughters signed on; and neither did brother Jeb's kids. What hypocrites! And, with very few exceptions there were few Congressional children in the service either. they can send US but wont send their own.

In Britain, royalty has long enjoyed special privileges, and it's refreshing to see that this is beginning to change.
