Prince Harry, a 2006 graduate of Britain's prestigious Sandhurst military academy, will soon go to Iraq with his military unit, a British military source told CNN. Do you think it's the right thing to do?

Of course its the right thing to do. What makes his life any more important than anyone elses?

Yes I do. I think it is very proper. If politicians are going to get us in a war and keep us there, why shouldn't their sons and grandsons go fight too? Don't forget the granddaughters and daughters. Why should they be better than anyone else? I don't have a problem with it. But then again I was in the military and have encouraged my daughters to join when they are old enough also.

Absolutely, lead from the front, not from behind like our President. Only then will the future of weighty decisions be properly measured should he decide at some point in his life to be more than a PR for the monarchy. They will take care of him, far better than you and I, in a similar circumstance.

He's in the BRIT MILITARY. He's just another piece of cannon fodder for the brits to send over. He is required to obey his orders and his senior enlisted/officers. Where he went to school means squat in the suck.

I think it is about the most awesome thing that's happened in a long time! It should shut the mouths of some of those who think our leaders should be sending their own kids over!! Diana taught those boys to be patriotic and to fight for what they believed in, she would be proud!

Any intelligent military knows not to put possible great leaders in harms way. that is what the grunts are for. Why would you put a great man in a position to die and not do great things for the world in the future.

He is to be admired for this since we know he could have gotten out of it if he wanted to. Clearly he believes in fighting for a cause greater than himself. Hoe patriotic of him. Way to go Harry!

Yes, all future leaders should have military experience...

Why not he joined the army and is subject to its orders.
