Prins Harry bezuipt zich nog eens goed voor militaire opleiding

Prins Harry (20) heeft zich vlak voor zijn militaire opleiding nog eens flink bezopen. Zondag wordt hij door zijn vader, de Britse troonopvolger prins Charles, naar de strenge militaire academie Sandhurst gebracht voor een basisopleiding.

Volgens The Sun stapte de prins tegen 4.00 uur 's ochtends met een vriend giechelend uit een chique Londense nachtclub. Buiten wachtte reeds een politieagent, die Harry als lijfwacht en chauffeur dient, achter het stuur van een limousine. Blijkbaar hadden ze volgens erg dronken vrienden het autoportier vergeten te sluiten, waardoor hun wagen al dadelijk na de start een geparkeerde wagen schramde.

Vermoedelijk had Harry zich uit voorzorg bedronken, want zondag wordt hij door zijn vader, de Britse troonopvolger prins Charles, naar de militaire academie Sandhurst gebracht. De basisopleiding daar is zeer hard en is het gebruik van alcohol tijdens het verloop ervan niet echt bevorderlijk. Bovendien geldt er tijdens de eerste vijf weken een uitgaansverbod

 

 

SANDHURST, UNITED KINGDOM: The Prince of Wales, Prince Charles (L) gives his son Prince Harry (C) a gentle punch as they bid farewell at The Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, 35 miles west of London, 08 May 2005. Prince Harry begins his career in the British Army and will become the most senior member of the royal family in recent memory to be trained at Sandhurst. The elite academy insists the 20-year-old will not be treated differently to any other recruit. Senior officers are understood to be planning to call him Mr. Wales or Officer Cadet Wales while his fellow soldiers will just use his surname

PUFFED-OUT Prince Harry pants his way round his first gruelling Army exercise yesterday — and admits: “This is no joke.”

Harry, 20, dripped with sweat as he joined fellow officer cadets on the ten-mile trek — carrying a 25kg backpack and SA80 assault rifle.

HARRY: THEY'RE SIMPLY BEASTLY

Instructors dump his kit on parade ground

By Rupert Hamer

 

HORRIFIED Prince Harry got back from a training exercise at Sandhurst to find the contents of his room - including his underwear, boots, bed, desk and wardrobe - dumped out on the parade ground.

A sergeant major at the crack military academy then screamed at the exhausted Prince: "Wales, you've got ten minutes to get that lot back in order or it all goes out again!"

Startled Harry, who started his training last month, immediately began lugging the gear back indoors. But he only made the 10-minute deadline because fellow cadets helped him out.

His gear had been dumped outside by Army instructors in a tradition known as "beasting" - which is designed to build up team spirit in recruits. A Sandhurst source said: "Harry's face was a picture when he came back from a hard training exercise and saw the devastation.

"His underwear, uniform, shirts, boots, trainers and the rest of his furniture had been tipped on to the parade ground. It was a complete mess.

"He was already exhausted. He sat down, put his head in his hands and looked ready to give up. But his instructor gave him a kick up the arse and the other cadets from his platoon gave him a hand and he got everything sorted in time."

An ex-cadet said: "Beastings are a way of breaking down individuality, making sure people become team players.

"The instructors empty everything out of your lockers. They take great pleasure in doing so.

"They know you'll never be able to get everything in order in time and so you have to ask for help from the rest of your platoon. Then when someone else is in the same spot you return the favour, so learn to rely on each other."

Twenty-year-old Harry's ordeal came after he was pictured looking puffed last Tuesday after a tough exercise.

Carrying an SA80 assault rifle and 25k pack, he had joined fellow recruits for an eight-hour yomp across heathland in East Sussex. He had spent the night under canvas and been woken at 5am to begin the 10-mile hike.

About turn & about time











Boss and recruit ... General Ritchie

SANDHURST’S commandant led the amazing about turn in security yesterday — by taking personal charge of the main gate’s guard at 7.30am.

Major General Andrew Ritchie arrived on the dot in the wake of our amazing scoop in which a reporter got within yards of Prince Harry at the world-famous military academy.

He also ordered Gurkha soldiers to be posted at both ends of Harry’s accommodation block to protect the Royal officer cadet while he sleeps.

And he unleashed an armed security sweep of the ENTIRE academy and its 450 acres of grounds.

Officer cadets were last night still patrolling the woodland and open ground with loaded SA80 rifles. Soldiers with mirrors were checking under vehicles.

Now ... Operation Wideawake in action

The drastic measures follow our man — known as The Investigator — being able to wander around the Surrey academy with a fake bomb.

He videoed Harry from a parked car and strolled into his accommodation block in the New College building.

General Ritchie’s Operation Wideawake clearly demonstrated how the security blunder has embarrassed the MoD and Sandhurst staff.

One academy source said last night: “This is seen as a major embarrassment which reflects badly on everyone here. We have all been told to challenge all strangers on the base and be on the lookout for anything suspicious, no matter how trivial.

Access ... our reporter gets in yesterday


“There were dozens of extra police on the base today topped up with regular patrols by armed soldiers.”

Harry has Royal Protection Squad officers with him at Sandhurst.

But they are NOT responsible for security on the site — and would assume the place was secure.

Gurkhas guarding Harry’s Alamein Company accommodation will provide security on top of the Met team.

So close ... our man films Harry


General Ritchie has also ordered that guests at the base are only allowed through the gates if they are escorted in by the people they have arranged to meet.

The measures are seen as the only way to ensure Harry, 20, remains safe during the 36 weeks remaining of his course to become an Army officer.

Last night Clarence House said they thought the recruit we highlighted in our video still might not be Harry.

A spokesman added: “Having reviewed the footage and spoken to those who were with Harry we are of the opinion it is not him.”

An MoD spokesman later added: “I can confirm that Sandhurst are categorically saying it isn’t Harry.”

But a Sun spokesman replied: “We are confident it is Harry.”

Fallout ... vehicles queue in massive clampdown


Ex-SAS hero Andy McNab said the issue was not who is in the picture — but the fact security had been so easily breached.

He added: “It doesn’t matter who it is. The fact is that there was a breakdown in security.”

And retired Chief Supt Dai Davies — former head of royal security — said: “This isn’t about whether Prince Harry was or was not caught on video. The Sun’s excellent investigation demonstrably outlined a failure to recognise the inherent danger that such laxity allows into the country’s foremost military academy.”

Our man drove into Sandhurst through the main gate after posing as a warfare student and making an appointment to visit the library.

Defence Secretary John Reid yesterday ordered a probe. He will also quiz the Army’s overall chief of training, Lt Gen Freddie Viggers.

An MoD spokesman confirmed: “Sandhurst is conducting a review of procedures and changes will be made.”

Harry on Parade as Officer Cadet

By John Bingham, PA

Prince Harry made his public debut as an officer cadet today as he marched out in his first parade at Sandhurst.

After less than seven weeks of gruelling training the Prince marched in perfect step and raised his hat in three cheers to his grandmother, the Queen, at the elite college’s colours parade.

But the Queen, who had been due to preside over the event, was absent today after falling ill with a heavy cold.

General Sir Michael Walker, Chief of Defence Staff, stood in for the Monarch at today’s parade, the first of its type at Sandhurst for more than 30 years.

The Prince stood among 755 fellow cadets in sweltering heat during the hour-long ceremony at the military academy in Surrey.

Harry showed off his immaculately pressed uniform as he stood in line, second from the end in the second row from the back as the new colours were presented.

General Walker stopped and had a few words with the Prince who stood straight-backed, staring forward and nodded almost imperceptibly displaying his Golden Jubilee medal as the General, inspected the cadets.

Today’s parade was the first separate presentation of new flags to the academy since 1974.

In 1991 new colours were handed over at the same time as the regular sovereign’s parade.

Around 3500 guests sat in stadium-style seating around the parade square in front of the imposing Old College building with dignitaries including diplomats from 57 countries, took their seats at the front. The recruits stood motionless as prayers were read, including the line “We humbly beseech thee to bless thy servant our gracious Sovereign Lady Queen Elizabeth.”

As the ceremony drew to a close the Prince, who was recently allowed to temporarily ditch his heavy black army boots because of blisters, marched in perfect step as the recruits paraded around the square.

As the order “eyes right” was given the Prince found himself face to face with a pen packed with photographers straining for the best shot of the famous officer cadet.

In his address General Walker spoke of disappointment at hearing of the Queen’s illness but told the recruits: “I’m sure you all wish to join me in wishing Her Majesty good speed for a rapid and full recovery.”

In a personal message from the Queen the General told the recruits: “Throughout the ages a heavy burden of responsibility has been entrusted to those in the military profession. This has never been truer than today when many of the British armed forces are engaged in many demanding and dangerous operations around the world.

The message continued: “The challenges that lie ahead will test to the full your character, your physical endurance and your intellect.

“You will have the privilege of commanding men and women of the highest quality and that privilege demands a strong sense of responsibility and the need to set an example and to remain true to the Sandhurst motto ’Serve To Lead”’.

The Queen’s message concluded: “Remember to uphold the high standards and values that you have been taught here for your soldiers and your countries deserve nothing less.”

Among the 755 future officers on parade today were 63 overseas cadets from 36 countries and 85 female cadets.
