A young soldier on leave has been photographed dancing barefoot by a pool with other revelers and jumping in the pool fully clothed. The soldier in question has been working almost solidly for a whole year and has had just one weeks holiday in that time. He has crossed the Antarctic (or at least part of it) to help raise money for Help For Heroes and has, in addition to that kept up additional duties on the side throughout the year.
Nothing wrong with that do I hear you say? Well there shouldn’t be but as usual the soldier in question is being held to the ridged double standards that always apply where he and other members of his family are concerned. If it were any other soldier people would be saying how great it was to see him letting his hair down but of course it’s not! This soldier is Prince Harry and he of course, is not allowed to be ‘normal’, it makes me so cross! He serves with or forces and even if he’s not on the front lines he is doing the same service as any of the other soldiers currently not on the front lines but he also has to perform his royal duties and be extra careful in his ‘private’ life (and I use that term very loosely) watching everything he says, does and even wears, and all with that charming smile on his face, and yet any press coverage is always angled at sniping at the ‘childish antics’ of the Prince. Anyone who knows a young soldier knows that they work hard and play hard and rightly so!
For Gods sake let’s give the man a break! He is doing a fantastic job and should be allowed to let his hair down once in a while.
