The Warlike Harry

The Warlike Harry

England’s royal family may be returning to its chivalric roots. Prince Harry, the third in line to the throne, is a military officer who has been fighting in hot combat in Afghanistan. His unit has killed some 30 Taliban.

[Who can identify the allusion in the title of this post? How else is that allusion appropriate, considering Prince Harry’s earlier frivolous past?]

UPDATE: Because of the publicity, Prince Harry has been pulled from action and is back in England. Now al-Qaida is calling for his assassination.
