Prince Harry to serve in Iraq
Prince Harry is to be sent to Iraq, the British Ministry of Defence confirmed today.
The 22-year-old third in line to the throne is to become the first royal to be deployed on a tour of duty in a war zone for a quarter of a century.
His uncle, the Duke of York, flew helicopters in the Falklands conflict 25 years ago.
Army officer Harry will join his regiment, the Blues and Royal, in Iraq as part of a long-planned rotation of troops.
