‘I’ve lost a lot’: Prince Harry tells Vancouver trauma expert Gabor Mate in streamed interview
The Duke of Sussex has said “a lot of us” in the Army “didn’t necessarily agree or disagree” with the war in Afghanistan.
Prince Harry, who served for ten years in the Army and did two tours in Afghanistan, said that one of the reasons why so many people in the UK did not support the troops was because they “assumed” that all serving military personnel were in favour of the invasion.
“But once you sign up, you do what you’re told to do,” he told trauma expert Dr. Gabor Mate in a live-streamed conversation.
“There was a lot of us that didn’t necessarily agree or disagree, but you were doing what you were trained to do. You’re doing what you were sent to do.”
