"As an ex-military man, I think Sandhurst and Marine training will do Harry the world of good. More young people should go into the forces to bring back the discipline that is lacking in many of the younger generation. I think he will survive the notorious harsh regime of the military academy as, from what Ican see, he is a tough sortof lad."

"I think he will certainly find it a culture shock after his clubbing and playboy days but it all depends on whether he will really be treated as just another cadet. The hierarchy has promised there will be no favours handed out to him but at the end of the day he is a Royal.I do not think his make-up is a lot different from other lads of his age but it depends how he gets on with the rest of the recruits."

"I can't see him lasting the full stretch. I think the change in lifestyle will be too much for him and with his rebellious nature I don't think he will survive. If the bookies are taking bets against him serving the full time, Iwould be joining the queueto have a wager. If Sandhurst makes allowances for himhe might make it, but that would defeat the object of him going there in the first place."

"I think he will do it so my money would be on him seeing the thing through. A lot of tearaways have joined the army in the past and become well trained, disciplined soldiers so why can't he? He might have a bit of a "Jack the lad" image but he appears to be tough, which is what matters."
