Not the military way

-

I WAS a Royal Marine, so I am disappoint­ed that our former Captain General has discussed the number of people he killed while serving in Afghanista­n.

Service personnel don’t talk about such actions, and most certainly not in public.

I’d remind him of the Royal Marines ethos. The Commando values: excellence, integrity, self- discipline, humility. The Commando spirit: courage, determinat­ion, cheerfulne­ss in adversity, unselfishn­ess.

Unfortunat­ely, despite his service to his country, it appears harry wasn’t our Captain General long enough to embrace these values.

Name and address supplied. BY ADMITTING he killed 25 Taliban in Afghanista­n, Prince harry has made himself and his family an assassinat­ion target for revenge. We all know he is not very bright, but this is incredibly stupid.
