Prince Harry the toast of New York

It's a great compliment to us here in the United States that Prince Harry should come and bring attention to those lost in the Twin Towers and, later, to visit those of our soldiers who have served so valiantly in war and suffered, deeply, as a result of it.

The U.S. and the U.K. share a long and close friendship among nations, and it is only strengthened by the great kindness of visits like these.

I am a Afghanistan and Iraqi combat veteran... I was at the V.A. yesterday when prince harry visited.. The kid is without a doubt, a show stopper.. It was amazing how great they took care of him and the amount of people (non veterans) where at the hospital visiting just that day... Im glad that Prince Harry came to the hospital to see the physically and mentally wounded veterans.. For the rest of the people who showed their faces for the wrong reasons I hope you are reading this and it hits you in the pit of your stomachs.. These are young men a women who gave and are giving more for this country out of the blood, sweat, and tears. This is the true harsh coarse of reality... So, head to coaches and buy your 5k bags while a wounded vet, one of our own, sits alone limbless in a broken down double wide trailer in P.A. Staff Seargent Seppanen 82nd Airborne

I agree that the U.S. does not do enough for our wounded returning GI's.
A lot of them will never again have even a small percentage of a normal life, and especially when most of them are very young men and women, it's sad beyond belief. I feel that Prince Harry is trying to carry on some of the good works that his mother was so involved in, and for that, I think he should be given credit.
