Prince Harry Announces The End Of Afghan Hostilities

As Good Prince Hal makes his return from Lashgar to Las Vegas, marking the official end of the Afghanistan War, a few thoughts emerge from the clip below. 
1. The army briefings of their personnel on the background to the war must be as bad as we suspected - Taliban 'doing bad stuff' to 'our guys'. Taking them 'out of the game'. Self-parody.
2. The royal family have obviously made a deal with the tabloids for favourable coverage of someone who is clearly an inarticulate yob.
3. The Buckingham Palace PR must have worked all night on 'Too much army, not enough Prince' about the Las Vegas hooker episode.
