Soldier Prince
In 2008, it was revealed that the prince was secretly on the front lines as a forward air controller in Helmand Province in Afghanistan. He was deployed under the condition that his whereabouts remained a secret to prevent him from becoming a Taliban target but the media breached the army's blackout agreement. When told by his grandmother that he will be serving, Harry became excited that he would "finally get the chance to do the soldiering I wanted to do from ever since I joined."
