Kalaruga Shark Media. The helicopter blades cut through the thin

2
00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:15.080
desert air as Prince Harry peers out at the barren

3
00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:21.440
landscape of Afghanistans spread below him. It's February twenty twelve,

4
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:24.079
and the twenty seven year old prince is about to

5
00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:27.000
embark on his second deployment to one of the world's

6
00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:32.119
most dangerous war zones. But this time is different. This time,

7
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:35.359
he's not just a soldier's serving his country. He's a

8
00:00:35.399 --> 00:00:39.320
prince whose very presence on the battlefield could endanger every

9
00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:53.000
person serving alongside him. This is Crown and Controversy, Episode twelve,

10
00:00:53.759 --> 00:01:04.599
Harry's journey. The decision to return Harry to active duty

11
00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:09.599
in Afghanistan has consumed months of heated discussions between Clarence House,

12
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:12.879
the Ministry of Defense, and the highest levels of government.

13
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:17.159
The memories of his aborted first deployment in two thousand

14
00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:21.319
and seven still sting when media reports about his presence

15
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:24.680
forced military commanders to pull him from the front lines

16
00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:28.560
after just ten weeks. The headlines then screamed about the

17
00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:33.239
most protected soldier in Afghanistan, but Harry saw only failure.

18
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:36.799
A prince whose privilege had made him a liability to

19
00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:41.680
his fellow soldiers. Now, four years later, the Palace and

20
00:01:41.719 --> 00:01:46.799
military have crafted an elaborate strategy to keep Harry's deployment secret.

21
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:52.920
Operation Minimize, as its code named, internally, involves unprecedented cooperation

22
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:56.760
between British media outlets who have agreed to a complete

23
00:01:56.760 --> 00:02:00.840
news blackout about Harry's presence in Afghanistan in exchange for

24
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:05.560
exclusive access when he returns. It's a gamble that could

25
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:09.280
either showcase the modern monarchy's commitment to service or create

26
00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:14.280
a security nightmare that could cost lives. At Camp Bastion

27
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:19.000
in Hellman Province, Harry's commanding officers face the complex challenge

28
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:21.879
of treating him as both a regular soldier and a

29
00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:26.639
high value target. Captain Wales, as he's known here, will

30
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:30.439
serve as an Apache helicopter co pilot and gunner, roles

31
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.960
that require split second decisions and absolute trust between crew members.

32
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:38.759
But how do you maintain normal military discipline when your

33
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:42.479
subordinate is third in line to the throne. The Prince

34
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:45.960
wants to be treated like any other pilot, explains his

35
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:49.639
commanding officer in a briefing to senior staff. But we

36
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:54.120
all understand the implications if something goes wrong. This isn't

37
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:58.080
just about one soldier anymore. This is about the future

38
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:03.000
of the monarchy. The contradiction at the heart of Harry's

39
00:03:03.039 --> 00:03:07.719
military service has followed him throughout his army career. At Sandhurst,

40
00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:12.759
instructors struggled with how to discipline a prince during training exercises,

41
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:17.199
Fellow cadets wondered whether their royal classmate would receive special treatment,

42
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:21.280
And now, in the most dangerous posting of his career,

43
00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:25.199
Harry faces the ultimate test of whether his desire to

44
00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:29.400
serve as a normal soldier can coexist with the extraordinary

45
00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:34.680
reality of his birth. In his sparse quarters at Camp Bastion,

46
00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:38.800
Harry keeps two photographs on his small desk. One shows

47
00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:42.120
him with William and Catherine at their wedding reception, their

48
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:45.680
faces glowing with happiness and hope. The other is a

49
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:49.919
picture of his mother visiting landmine victims in Angola, her

50
00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:52.479
hand reaching out to comfort a child whose life had

51
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:56.159
been shattered by war. These images remind him daily of

52
00:03:56.199 --> 00:03:59.719
the two worlds he inhabits, the privileged realm of royal

53
00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:03.840
deus and the harsh reality of military service, where life

54
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:07.240
and death decisions carry no regard for titles or bloodlines.

55
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:13.719
The Apache helicopter Harry flies represents twenty seven million pounds

56
00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:19.120
of sophisticated military technology, equipped with missiles, rockets, and a

57
00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:25.439
thirty millimeter cannon capable of devastating enemy positions. But inside

58
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:29.160
the cramped cockpit, Prince or no Prince, Harry must prove

59
00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:33.680
himself worthy of his crew's trust every single day. His

60
00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:37.720
co pilot, a seasoned warrant officer with fifteen years of

61
00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:43.000
combat experience, initially approaches their partnership with barely concealed skepticism.

62
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:47.519
I've flown with rich boys before, the warrant officer confides

63
00:04:47.560 --> 00:04:50.480
to a fellow pilot. They think this is some kind

64
00:04:50.519 --> 00:04:54.360
of adventure, but when the shooting starts, they usually remember

65
00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:56.759
they have more to lose than the rest of us.

66
00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:02.319
Harry's first combat mission comes just three weeks into his deployment.

67
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:07.560
Intelligence reports indicate Taliban fighters are threatening a forward operating

68
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:11.360
base in a remote valley. The mission briefing is routine,

69
00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:15.360
but everyone in the room understands the extraordinary nature of

70
00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:19.920
what's about to happen. For the first time in modern history,

71
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:23.240
a direct heir to the British throne will engage enemy

72
00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:28.879
combatants in active warfare. As his apache lifts off into

73
00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:32.439
the pre dawn darkness, Harry feels the familiar mixture of

74
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:38.160
fear and exhilaration that every combat pilot knows. But beneath

75
00:05:38.199 --> 00:05:42.040
these normal emotions lies something deeper, the knowledge that his

76
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:46.639
presence here represents more than personal courage. He's carrying the

77
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:50.079
weight of royal tradition into battle, proving that the House

78
00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:52.800
of Windsor still believes in leading from the front when

79
00:05:52.879 --> 00:05:58.680
duty demands it. The radio crackles with coordinates and target information.

80
00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:05.040
As Harry's hellice approaches the combat zone below. British soldiers

81
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:08.639
are pinned down by enemy fire, their situation growing more

82
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:12.319
desperate by the minute. Harry's training takes over as he

83
00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:17.639
identifies targets through his sophisticated optic system, his finger hovering

84
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:20.480
over the weapons controls that could end lives with the

85
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:35.800
squeeze of a trigger. The first shots Harry fires in

86
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:39.639
anger echo across the Afghan mountains with a significance that

87
00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:43.720
extends far beyond their immediate tactical purpose. These are the

88
00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:46.399
first rounds fired in combat by a member of the

89
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:50.199
Royal family since Prince Andrew's service in the Falklands War

90
00:06:50.439 --> 00:06:55.720
thirty years earlier. But unlike Andrew's naval service, Harry's role

91
00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:59.360
as an Apache gunner means his decisions will directly determine

92
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:03.959
who lives and who dies in the valleys below. The

93
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:08.680
engagement lasts seventeen minutes, but in Harry's memory it will

94
00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:14.000
feel both eternal and instantaneous. His weapon systems function flawlessly,

95
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:18.759
his target identification proves accurate, and the enemy position is

96
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:23.879
neutralized without casualties among British forces. But as his helicopter

97
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:27.480
returns to base, Harry grapples with the reality that he

98
00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:31.079
has crossed a line no prince has crossed in generations.

99
00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:35.279
How do you feel? His co pilot asks, as they

100
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:39.279
shut down the Apache's engines Back at Camp Bastion, Harry

101
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:44.160
considers the question carefully, like a soldier. He finally answers

102
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:49.920
and means it. The psychological impact of combat affects Harry

103
00:07:49.959 --> 00:07:54.240
in ways that Pallace advisers never anticipated. The young man

104
00:07:54.279 --> 00:07:58.040
who deployed to Afghanistan still carried traces of the playful

105
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:01.279
prince who had charmed the public with his informal manner

106
00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:06.360
and occasional indiscretions. The pilot who emerges from his first

107
00:08:06.399 --> 00:08:10.399
firefight has been fundamentally changed by the experience of holding

108
00:08:10.439 --> 00:08:14.720
life and death in his hands. Letters from home provide

109
00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:19.079
glimpses into the world Harry has temporarily left behind. William

110
00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:21.920
writes about his training as a search and rescue pilot,

111
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:26.800
describing the satisfaction of saving lives rather than taking them.

112
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:30.839
Catherine shares news of their charitable work and the adjustments

113
00:08:30.839 --> 00:08:34.159
she's making to royal life. Their words feel like messages

114
00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:37.480
from another planet, so removed are they from the daily

115
00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:40.440
reality of war. But it's a letter from his father

116
00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:44.720
that affects Harry most deeply. Prince Charles, writing in his

117
00:08:44.919 --> 00:08:49.080
careful long hand, expresses pride in his son's service, while

118
00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:52.919
also conveying subtle concerns about the risks Harry is accepting.

119
00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:58.080
Your grandmother speaks often of your courage, Charles writes, but

120
00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:02.799
remember that bravery without whizdos is merely recklessness. Your country

121
00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:07.399
needs you to return home safely. The letter carries an

122
00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:12.679
unspoken message that Harry understands completely. Unlike his fellow soldiers,

123
00:09:12.840 --> 00:09:16.200
Harry's death would not be a private tragedy confined to family.

124
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:21.159
And friends. It would be a national catastrophe, potentially destabilizing

125
00:09:21.200 --> 00:09:24.840
the monarchy and creating a security crisis that could endanger

126
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:29.200
other members of the royal family. This knowledge weighs on

127
00:09:29.279 --> 00:09:33.200
Harry during quiet moments, the understanding that his desire to

128
00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:39.120
serve as a normal soldier carries abnormal consequences. As weeks

129
00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:42.600
turn to months, Harry establishes a routine that helps him

130
00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:49.639
balance these competing pressures dawn briefings, maintenance checks, combat missions, debriefings,

131
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:53.200
and the endless cycle of military life in a war zone.

132
00:09:53.679 --> 00:09:57.240
His fellow pilots gradually warmed to their royal colleague as

133
00:09:57.240 --> 00:10:00.879
they witness his competence and commitment. The secret of his

134
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:04.879
presence creates its own tensions. It's like having a bomb

135
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:09.559
on base, one senior officer confides to his diary. Everyone

136
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:13.320
knows it's here, everyone's walking carefully around it, but we

137
00:10:13.399 --> 00:10:16.200
can't talk about it. And we all know that if

138
00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:22.000
word gets out, everything changes. The media blackout holds through

139
00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:25.720
the spring and into the summer of twenty twelve, but

140
00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:30.960
maintaining the secret requires constant vigilance. Every journalist who arrives

141
00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:34.480
at Camp Bastion must be briefed about what they cannot report.

142
00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:39.720
Every photograph must be scrutinized to ensure Harry's face doesn't appear.

143
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:45.240
Every communication home is monitored to prevent accidental disclosure of

144
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:50.519
his location. The strain of maintaining this deception affects Harry

145
00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:54.759
in unexpected ways. He cannot call home freely knowing that

146
00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.759
his communications are monitored. He cannot form the same casual

147
00:10:58.799 --> 00:11:03.799
friendships with fellows understanding that his presence puts them under

148
00:11:03.840 --> 00:11:07.559
additional scrutiny, and he cannot escape the knowledge that his

149
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:11.120
every action is being evaluated not just as a soldier,

150
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:15.919
but as a representative of the British Crown. During a

151
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:20.519
particularly difficult week in August, when Taliban attacks intensify across

152
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:25.279
Hellman Province, Harry participates in six combat missions in five days.

153
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:30.559
The operational tempo pushes him to his physical and emotional limits,

154
00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:33.759
but it also provides the clearest answer yet to the

155
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:37.440
question that has haunted his military career. Can a prince

156
00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:41.679
truly be a soldier? His performance during this intense period

157
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:44.759
earns the respect of even his harshest critics within the

158
00:11:44.799 --> 00:11:51.120
military hierarchy. Harry's kill count remains classified but his effectiveness

159
00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:56.360
as a weapon systems operator is undeniable. More importantly, his

160
00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:00.120
presence seems to inspire, rather than intimidate, his fellow soul,

161
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:03.759
who begin to see him not as a privileged outsider,

162
00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:13.480
but as a committed member of their brotherhood. The turning

163
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:17.519
point in Harry's deployment comes in September, when his Apache

164
00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:19.879
crew is called to assist in the rescue of wounded

165
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:23.879
soldiers from a remote patrol base. The mission requires precise

166
00:12:23.960 --> 00:12:27.759
flying in dangerous terrain with Taliban fighters positioned in the

167
00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:33.440
surrounding hills. As Harry's helicopter approaches the landing zone, enemy

168
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:37.399
fire begins to streak across the valley. The pilot wounded

169
00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:40.200
in the engagement is a twenty two year old corporal

170
00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:45.200
from Manchester, his leg shattered by an improvised explosive device.

171
00:12:45.720 --> 00:12:49.080
As Harry helps load the injured soldier into the medical helicopter,

172
00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:53.399
their eyes meet for a moment. The young corporal, delirious

173
00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:57.960
with pain and medication, focuses on Harry's face with sudden recognition.

174
00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:03.320
You're him. The corps whispers, You're the Prince. Harry freezes,

175
00:13:03.799 --> 00:13:07.720
understanding that his secret has been compromised, But instead of

176
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:11.440
fear or resentment, he sees something else in the wounded

177
00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:15.240
soldier's eyes, gratitude that a member of the royal family

178
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:19.320
cared enough to serve alongside ordinary troops in harm's way.

179
00:13:20.519 --> 00:13:25.080
I'm just another pilot, Harry replies quietly, But the encounter

180
00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:29.840
reinforces Harry's growing understanding that his service in Afghanistan means

181
00:13:29.879 --> 00:13:35.159
something beyond personal fulfillment or military necessity. He's demonstrating that

182
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:39.639
the modern monarchy still believes in shared sacrifice. That privilege

183
00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:44.600
comes with obligations that extend to the ultimate risk. As

184
00:13:44.600 --> 00:13:48.840
his deployment nears its end in October twenty twelve, Harry

185
00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:53.159
participates in one final major operation, a joint British and

186
00:13:53.200 --> 00:13:56.879
Afghan assault on a Taliban stronghold that has been disrupting

187
00:13:56.960 --> 00:14:01.759
supply convoys for months. The mission success, but not without cost.

188
00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:06.080
Two British soldiers are killed in the fighting. Their deaths

189
00:14:06.120 --> 00:14:09.080
a stark reminder of the price paid for every tactical

190
00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:13.799
victory in this complicated war. At the memorial service for

191
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:17.440
the fallen soldiers, Harry stands with his fellow pilots and

192
00:14:17.519 --> 00:14:21.080
ground crews, no longer thinking about the headlines his presence

193
00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:25.399
might generate, or the diplomatic complications his service might create.

194
00:14:26.039 --> 00:14:29.480
He's thinking about the families who will receive folded flags,

195
00:14:29.960 --> 00:14:33.320
about the children who will grow up without fathers, about

196
00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:36.799
the terrible arithmetic of war that measures success in lives

197
00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:42.039
saved against lives lost. The moment marks Harry's final transformation

198
00:14:42.559 --> 00:14:46.759
from reluctant prince to committed soldier. He has proven to

199
00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:50.679
himself and to others that royal blood doesn't preclude real service,

200
00:14:51.159 --> 00:14:56.720
that privilege can coexist with genuine sacrifice. The young man

201
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:00.960
who struggled with his identity in nightclubs and employd's scandals

202
00:15:01.320 --> 00:15:04.639
has found something approaching peace in the most unlikely place,

203
00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:08.600
a war zone where his title matters less than his competence.

204
00:15:10.240 --> 00:15:14.919
When Harry's deployment officially ends in January twenty thirteen, he

205
00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:18.600
has flown over one hundred combat missions and spent nearly

206
00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:22.679
five months in one of the world's most dangerous military environments.

207
00:15:23.360 --> 00:15:28.360
The media blackout has held, preserving operational security and allowing

208
00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:31.679
him to serve without the circus of publicity that derailed

209
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:36.679
his first deployment. But as his transport plane lifts off

210
00:15:36.720 --> 00:15:40.240
from Camp bastion for the final time. Harry knows that

211
00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:44.240
he's leaving behind more than just a military posting. He

212
00:15:44.320 --> 00:15:46.960
is leaving behind the last place where he could be

213
00:15:47.080 --> 00:15:51.639
judged simply as Harry Wale's helicopter pilot rather than Prince

214
00:15:51.679 --> 00:15:56.240
Henry of Wales's third in line to the throne. The

215
00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:59.679
man returning to England carries with him not just the

216
00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:03.440
set faction of duty performed, but the weight of decisions

217
00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:07.399
made in combat, the bonds forged with fellow soldiers, and

218
00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:10.639
the knowledge that he has crossed thresholds that few princes

219
00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:15.600
in history have ever faced. His journey from pampered royal

220
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:19.639
to combat veteran has been completed, but the challenge now

221
00:16:19.840 --> 00:16:23.639
will be integrating these two identities into a coherent vision

222
00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:29.799
of modern princely duty. As London appears through the aircraft's windows,

223
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.399
Harry prepares to re enter a world of protocol and publicity,

224
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:38.360
charitable engagements and state occasions. But he carries with him

225
00:16:38.440 --> 00:16:41.600
the hard earned confidence of someone who has tested himself

226
00:16:41.639 --> 00:16:46.240
in the ultimate crucible and emerged not just unbroken, but transformed.

227
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:53.279
Next time on crown and controversy, the longest serving monarch

228
00:16:53.320 --> 00:16:56.879
in British history prepares for a celebration sixty years in

229
00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:01.200
the making, Queen Elizabeth the Second's Diamond Jewny becomes a

230
00:17:01.240 --> 00:17:06.920
showcase for modern monarchy. But behind the pageantry, questions linger

231
00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:11.680
about succession, family unity, and whether the institution can maintain

232
00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:17.119
its relevance in a rapidly changing world. Crown and Controversy

233
00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:22.119
is a production of Caloroga Shark Media executive producers Mark

234
00:17:22.200 --> 00:17:26.960
Francis and John McDermott. While no one truly knows what

235
00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:31.039
happens behind closed palace doors, I've used news sources, on

236
00:17:31.119 --> 00:17:34.559
the record, quotes, and some artistic license to craft this

237
00:17:34.799 --> 00:17:39.680
entertainment series. Some moments have been dramatized for storytelling effect.

238
00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:43.799
AI narration was used in creation of this series. To
