Ah, well, at least he'll have more time to frequent trendy night clubs, get pissed and make a tw@t of himself.

Even if he was, do you think they would announce it?? ;-)

I think they should have kept it quiet and seeded the whole army with ginger lookalikes, only to use them in carefully planned ambushes.

What a fantastic idea. We could rid ourselves of all the gingers in the country.

Just another symptom of our risk adverse culture

Marines that surrender to fuzzy wuzzies without a fight

Ten Tors abandoned because it was a bit windy and wet

Country's gone to the dogs

The reason Harry is not going to Iraq is the recent (Iranian-backed) attack on a Challenger 2 tank:

The MOD knows that if Harry goes to Iraq every British tank in Basra will be blown to hell and back.

I've been following the news of this, and some parents of serving soldiers moan that Harry is getting off lightly because he is privileged.

However, serving soldiers themselves say they agreed with him not going, because they would not want to be posted anywhere near him.
