Default So, Harry isn't going to Iraq then.

So then, I guess the MoD finally saw sense. I was discussing this, as you do, in the back of a taxi while in America, and we came to the same conclusion - that he'd have put both himself and his unit in danger by going.

One thing I picked up on, and the reason for this thread...

Mr Keys added: "It would appear that Harry's life is more valuable than my son or the other nearly 150 service personnel who've given their lives."
On a personal level, I'd think that was pretty obvious, but then I don't have family in Iraq, and I certainly don't personally know anyone who has been killed in Iraq. I can certainly see how either of these would bring a different perspective to things.
