Protecting the Prince
Thursday 03rd of May 2007 04:58:15 PM
Ever since UK’s Prince Harry was scheduled to be deployed with the rest of his unit to Iraq, there has been debate as to whether he should go or be reassigned. After terrorist groups declared they would be targeting the young prince, many have been of the opinion that he should just stay home. In a sign of solidarity, some soldiers in the British army have been wearing ‘I’m Harry’ printed T-shirts in order to confuse the enemy and to let the public know that they want the prince to join them."Soldiers are well known for having operational tour T-shirts and also for pulling together to support each other. Prince Harry is highly respected by his comrades as a young officer and for what he is doing in the Armed Forces. I wouldn't be surprised if all his troops haven't bought them to demonstrate their support for him as their leader and also to help donate some money to the Army Benevolent Fund,” said a military source.
The printed T-shirts pay homage to the 1960 film ‘Spartacus’ where the soldiers each claimed to be Spartacus in order to save his life. Shirts are currently being sold on e-bay with some of the proceeds going to the British Army Benevolent Fund.
Prince Harry will be going to Iraq, even though his position has been changed in order to protect him from harm. He will be going with SAS troops and his location will be kept unknown. As the fighting in Iraq becomes more dangerous, showing courage even though his life has been threatened is one way the prince can instill pride and accomplishment in British forces as they head off to war.

the chance to review the image is great for checking everything over one last time before printing. the time between reviewing the print and delivery was another positive, taking only a couple of days. my friends were really pleased with the finished items. unfortunately i was out when the courier called. he didn't note the date or time of his attempted delivery on his card and he hadn't filled in when or if he would attempt delivery again. on repeatedly phoning the company on a friday between 4:50 and 6 i got no answer. i then tried again on the monday morning, but once again i got no answer. after phoning clothes2order they resolved everything. i realise this is outwith the control of clothes2order, but it soured an otherwise excellent service.
Delighted with the results. Very popular so repeat orders very likely.
great service, no problems at all
