Prince Harry is evidently on a plane back to the UK after news broke Thursday that he was fighting in Afghanistan.

Despite the fact that he did well, it isn't safe to have the spare heir on the front lines.

"I am delighted that Prince Harry has had the opportunity to serve on operations in Afghanistan with his Battlegroup. In common with all the other British soldiers in Afghanistan he has done so with courage and distinction. We can be proud of him and all his fellow soldiers - we owe them all a great deal. The British media have shown great restraint in not reporting his deployment and I would like to thank them for doing so. It is however a great pity that the news has now been broken by media overseas," Defense Secretary Des Browne said.

The British government hasn't confirmed that Harry is on his way home as they won't confirm the Prince's whereabouts.

"In deciding to deploy him to Afghanistan, it was my judgment that with an understanding with the media not to broadcast his whereabouts, the risk in doing was manageable," General Sir Richard Dannatt added.

I bet Harry is in great shape! I hope to see him on the cover of convoy magazine soon!
