summary:
Although the ministry of defence has not confirmed it yet, Prince Harry is sure that he will return to Afghanistan to join the British troops. He is now qualified as an Apache helicopter pilot and when he has permission to deploy, it will last until 2012. In 2007- 2008 the Prince was already based for ten weeks in Afghanistan, but he had to return to England because foreign websites had provided detailed information about his deployment. According to ‘The Sun’, the defence chiefs and the Queen have given their consent for Harry to go to the combat zones. Prince Harry has said that he wants to serve his country just like everyone else.
Reaction:
I think it is a really good thing that prince Harry wants to go to Afghanistan and fight, because he is a royal and he should be there among his people. However, if the enemy would find out where prince Harry is based, they could attack the troops. So it could turn out to be very dangerous. Despite the dangers I think a prince or princess should be allowed to fight for their country, because then you show that you care for your nation and your people. Let just hope he survives and returns safely to England, because I like him better than prince William.
Hi Liselotte,
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI agree with your opinion that Prince Harry should be among his people and for that purpose should fight in Afghanistan. On the other hand, he also risks his life by doing this so I don't know if it is that sensible. I couldn't find grammar mistakes.
Dear Liselotte!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI like your summary and I agree with your reaction. I also think that a prince should be able to fight for his country because that shows he cares about his nation! I also agree with you that it could be dangerous if the enemy knows where prince Harry is located, but I think that is a chance he is willing to take. I think he is aware of the dangers and concequences, but it would be nice if he came back safely. hihi
Good job!
Hi Liselotte! Interesting subject, I wrote a blog on this as well! I am happy for Harry that he can do what he wants, serving his country in Afghanistan. Usually, members of the royal family are protected by lots of bodyguards wherever they go and I can imagine that they would think this is too dangerous. He is the next one in line if
BeantwoordenVerwijderensomething happens to William. But still they let him go there and I really like that.
