'They've taken my shilling - now they must do their duty': Queen wanted William and Harry to go to war in Afghanistan
Then-head of the army Sir Mike Jackson has revealed one conversation he had with the monarch, saying he was breaking the rule about guarding their chats to reveal her thoughts on her grandchildren going to war.
That sparked fears for Harry's own security after the group angrily hit back at his comments made in his memoir, Spare. "I think it was really tricky. Anybody who's in the military who hasn't actually been on operation feels a sense of disappointment. Simon Wilson, who worked in that role between 2001 and 2005, said: "We had a whole raft of things that came out in advance of his visit, his dislikes, in terms of eating and stuff, would only drink water, had to be at room temperature, no ice.
He added: "We had a speech prepared, the ambassador gave the opening remarks and then said, 'Your Royal Highness, you say a few words', and Andrew refused to get up. "The same behaviour. Obviously throughout his life, he's done his own thing and was quite happy to continue in that vein and he knew that there would be no repercussions.
