March’s Golden Boy: Harry Wales
From royal zero into secret hero
– for his courageous 10-week tour of duty in Helmand province, in southern Afghanistan.
Some media, critics, royal watchers said that the whole exercise was superficial, PR overkill, merely a stunt…but it cannot be denied that it was a brilliant re-branding strategy and PR make-over for the third in line to the throne by Clarence House and the British Military. The royal family was for once not only decorative, but useful – the best publicity for years. It’s terrific for Harry’s playboy & rebellious reputation, for the royal family and the army.
Isn’t this second lieutenant in the Blues & Royals Regiment of the Household Cavalry dashing? :)
**McLaren’s Lewis Hamilton avoided the mayhem around him to open the Formula One season with a resounding pole-to-flag victory in a crash-strewn Australian Grand Prix. Neither Ferrari reaches the chequred flag and Fernando Alonso was fourth on his return to the Renault team.
