[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm starting to think some of you are actually trying not to understand, but here goes one more time.

All the senior royal men (Charles, Andrew, Edward, William, and Harry) were at one time active duty military. They served in varying branches and for varying amounts of time, but none served a full military career all the way until full retirement. All left volunarily at some point. Therefore, NONE OF THEM are entitled to wear military dress uniform based up on their prior service under the UK rules.

However, all senior royal men hold HONORARY military titles as a matter of tradition. This also now has expanded to include Anne. With honorary military titles, you are entitled to wear military dress uniform. Neither Andrew nor Harry are senior working royals any longer - Harry by choice, Andrew not by choice. Regardless, because neither are senior working royals, neither are entitled to wear military dress.

When Harry wore it in March 2020, he had announced his departure, but had not actually departed yet and was still techinically a senior working royal at that moment. [/quote]

Thank you -- let's hope they grasp this very clear explanation.  [/quote]

I more or less most of that. Yes neither Harry nor Andrew are working senior royals. The optics are not good to let his brother accused of sexually assaulting a teenager provided by his friends who were both charged with teen sex trafficking to wear the uniform - but not Harry. Harry’s statement is seeking to stay above the fray, and to keep attention focussed on respecting the memory management of his beloved grandmother. Good for him.

But it makes me Question Charles’ judgment and common sense, which his mother had in spades. She very sensibly had everyone wear suits at her husbands funeral. I think that would have been wiser in this case as well.

There were headlines claiming that Harry had released a "furious" statement boasting of his military career... the way the media spins things about him is seriously sickening[/quote]

Harry understands full well why he is not allowed military dress. Just like he understands why Archie was not entitled to Prince/HRH status at birth. Again, its not clear if he just didn't explain it all to Meghan, or he did explain and she just didn't care and ran with it anyway. [/quote]

Harry's tutors at Eton noted that he seemed to have difficulty understanding simple concepts.  He may not have understood these matters as well as one would believe.[/quote]
