Prince Harry Keeps His Fellow Soldiers Entertained in the Field
According to The Sun, "The picture was taken in a lighter moment during a recent gruelling exercise in Canada for Harry, 24, and his Blues and Royals colleagues. Last night a source said: 'This is typical of Harry. He loves to be one of the boys. This is not the kind of pose you will see him pull for official Royal photographs.' Lieutenant Wales — as Harry is known — is a popular member of his regiment."
No doubt.

Someone's starting to look decidedly jowly. How quickly, how finally, the Windsor genes assert themselves.

Don't you find those popular "straight" guys who make the fag jokes and gestures are the ones that are really, genuinely, deep-down curious, as if their antics were a kind of outlet for their repressions? Also a kind of defense mechanism: as if to say, I make jokes about it, therefore I am not that way.

It's called the "Royal Reach-Around".

That's hot.

@ LWOOLF
I think that was called high school for me. I'd act overly "masculine," to the extreme that it was almost a joke, just so people wouldn't suspect I was gay.
It turns out the joke was on me, because when I came out in college it was a shock to no one.

Um, Harry looks like he's is maturing into a man. Don't see any "jowly" on him. Harry's on the far left right away. Anyway.... I like Harry's sense of humour.

Windsor genes?? What Windsor genes? He's got the Spencer and the Hewitt ones.

I swear I don't mean this insensitively – I am very impressed that he does really seem like a funny and nice human being, that is to single him out for being a prince and for being his mother's son... those two boys could've turned out like the Hiltons, et al...

Come on guys that is funny! Think of all the times you've done horns or bunny ears in photos....I think he has some huevos to do anything on film EVERr...good job Harry

That is funny. The boy is playful.

This is called "the circle game" or "the hand circle game" or just "the game". Now Harry gets to punch the photographer. Didn't you ever play this in high school?

Ok, first off, how on EARTH are you reading "gay slur" into this? This is absolutely typical British lads humour that has nothing to do with gay connotations. It's meant to symbolise "wanker" i.e. this guy's an idiot, and it's being done in the spirit of fun, because lads together get silly, and make jokes. It has ZERO to do with gay implication and you're reading/projecting WAY too much into this.

His buddies are a bunch of butter-faces. Yikes.

EM, thanks for pointing this out, I agree with you. I think gay men sometimes read entirely too much into straight men horsing around with their buddies. Not all of them are closeted homosexuals, acting on pent up frustrations; most actually have a sense of humor, are secure with their sexuality and (god forbid) prefer women. Deal with it guys. That being said, of everyone in the royal family, I like harry the best. He seems like a genuinely good guy.

Ha, you're right! I'm sure if they did a study for lots of money, they'd find that good-looking people tend NOT to want to join the army for some unknown reason. Prince Red Hot here has to do it for the PR value, but he'll be clubbing it up the moment he's out (and no, not the preferred kind of 'out' I'd like either).

Its a funny picture. Now where are the naked photos

Harry seems like a fun bloke to party with. There's an older, hot pic of Harry with his military mates -- all shirtless. In it, Harry has a beer bottle in one hand and is licking the nipple of one of his mates with a sh*t-eating grin on his face. There were always rumours re: his dad; maybe, he's inherited the Windsor "bi-gene" -- one can only hope --LOL!
