Prince Harry 1 has arrived back in London after his Afganistan adventure


This wasn't the day he expected or wanted to come back, but back he had to come and quickly. Along with 170 other soldiers flown back from Afghanistan. Prince Harry's return became inevitable 2 as soon as a news blackout of his presence in the country was broken by the foreign press.Waiting for him, Prince Charles and Prince William who chose to greet him inside in private, relieved to be reunited as Prince Charles later made clear. 


"I, I feel particular frustration 3 on his part, that he was um, removed unexpectedly early, because I think he,uh, approximately he has been looking forward to coming back with all the rest of his, his regiment 4, uh, but as you can imagine, it's obviously a great relief as far as I'm concerned to, to see him home in uh, in one piece." 


For 10 weeks Prince Harry shared the risks and the danger that are ever present in Afghanistan, meeting some of the other soldiers returning today, Prince Charles said he shared their families' concern. 


"I do so understand now what it's like for so many other families uh, and the loved ones, you know, of those who are serving abroad on operations, what they have to endure, and having met so many of the families when I go to visit some of my regiments 5, I, I know what it's like when they're so far away, and somehow you don't know what's going on, and it's much worse in a way I think for those left behind, so I think we owe an enormous amount to all those families of our servicemen who endure so much and support their uh, loved ones with such understanding in return." 


On their way home, Prince William helped carry his brother's kit 6. It's likely that he may be the next to see active service, possibly with the Royal Navy later / this year. 


It'll be a month or so before Prince Harry rejoins his regiments after their return from Afghanistan, in the meantime, questions are bound to be asked about his role within it, and the British Army as a whole on whether it'll ever be practically possible to maintain a news blackout, should he wish to return to a frontline.
