I like this guy. Best of luck to him.

Hope he gets married soon. He seems to love kids and would likely make a good father.

It’s the right time for this. Neither Harry or his brother have anything left to prove militarily. They both served the interests of their country well. I’m surprised he lasted this long in that capacity of service without something really bad happening, like a kidnapping or worse.

Prince Harry wasn’t at the controls of an Apache very long. The UK probably didn’t get their money’s worth out of all that expensive training — but that’s their business. Commissioned officers rotate between combat leadership & staff jobs all the time and their army isn’t much different from ours in that regard.

He and his brother seem pretty genuine. Diana would be proud.

Two tours in Afghanistan and he has had enough. I don’t blame him

My nephew flew Apache Longbows, was an instructor in Germany, then did a tour in Afghanistan. When he reached the rank of Captain, they didn’t LET him fly anymore. When he found he’d have to be flying a desk with his ‘promotion’, he left that group and joined Special Forces, then did another tour in Iraq.

Who gives a rat's about the Brit "royalty"?
Royals, per se, are descendants of the meanest families that ever existed.

Even the Royals, privileged Krauts that they are, end up doing desk jobs like the rest of us! Damn! Besta luck kid, trying to keep it organized! Generations of geniuses have tied and failed.

I seriously doubt that he “quit” being an Apache driver to pilot a desk. Military people get reassigned all the time, for various reasons, not always willingly.
