While the Nazi's were easily the most fashionable army this world has ever seen, I'm not sure about the Political Correctness of being a 'Nazi' for Halloween (or masquerade, or whatever).
Is this guy for real? Doesn't he realize who he is (under the spotlight constantly)? Poor move, looks like the Royal family is going to have a delinquent to delight us for the next few decades!

He's probably in more trouble for falling head over heels for the daughter of the only white man in Zimbabwe favoured by Robert Mugabe than he is for this stupid mistake.

Jesus Jones, why are these people such idiots? I mean Hello! Do they not realize that doing anything like this will unquestiounably be found out about? This reminds me of the Bush twins trying to sneak drinks in public. Do they REALLY think they don't have paparazi on their ass 24/7?
Just save yourself the humiliation, Mr and Mrs Famous Person, and ask yourself a simple question "WHEN people know about this, will it hurt my or my family's reputation?".

Another case of the media making a mountain out of a moe hill.
Hes a kid, he was having a little fun.
But yes, he should be more responsible knowing that he is "royalty" and that he is under a microsscope.

Since he brother has been deemed the sucessor to Diana - I think Harry has taken on the role of being his evil opposite. The bad boy of the family if you will.

I don't see the big deal with this. It was a fancy dress party not like he was just hanging out with a Swastika on. I doubt it means that he supports the Nazi's or the extermination of Jews.

Well, it's obvious that anyone who wears a witch costume to a costume party is actually a proponent of wicca. Anyone who wears a rubber Mulroney mask likes the GST. Anyone who wears a Viking helmet actually actually would like to have rape and arson legalized. Anyone who dresses up as a cowboy is making a statement about the invalidity of indigenous land claims. So anyone who wears a swastika is obviously pro-nazi.
I'd be terrible as a member of royalty. You can't do anything remotely ironic. On the one hand, it's stupid of him to set himself up like that, but on the other hand, people need to lighten the hell up and let this boy enjoy his youth.

Putting all "political correctness," him being royalty, and all that wonderful junk aside...This kid "should" at least have a good sense about his nation's history and conflict with the Nazis. His country almost lost the war to these guys...doesn't he realize how much pain and suffering the swastika meant to the british?

Well, I think we all know that he is not "true" royalty anyway. If he gets too out of hand, I'm sure they'll come clean with the paternity issue.

He's an idiot. He's making a valiant effort to offend as many people as his buffoon of a grandfather Prince Philip. Personally i loathe all the Royals though.
Over here William and Harry are known as "the heir and the spare".

Let's just say that Harry has an uncanny resemblence to that man Diana was seeing when her marriage was on the rocks.

Royalty? Just being British.
The modern day equivalent of Bingo walking into the next CP get together with a Tim Taylor Tampa SC jersey and a Ryan Smyth #94 hat (covering a Kerry Fraser hairdo), carrying a "Free Bertuzzi" sign.
Ok not really, but almost.

Yeah, I always thought the Nazi's had the best uniforms. The designer was a genius. Too bad they tended to commit attrocities while wearing them.
And that was a totally dumbass move by the Prince. Forget the political correctness, how does this guy think that a Nazi Desert Uniform falls under the auspices of "Native and Colonial".
At least his brother dressed as wildlife. All Harry had to do was take off the armband, the lapel lightning badges, and put on a Safari hat. Then again, he could be portraying General Rommel, the Desert Fox who never actually joined the Nazi party...Really, that would be his only defense. Rommel was a great general, who even Churchill tributed. He was the only German commander not implicated of war crimes and had a distaste for Hitler and German attrocities.
In the end, the SS and Gestapo implicated him in suspicions of trying to end the war and assasinate Hitler and he was forced to poison himself, unless he family were to become involved and executed.

Under a microscope or not, wearing a nazi uniform is of extremely poor taste.
But thats exactly what would you expect from a spoiled "royal" brat.
It amazes me to no end the British still support and respect this joke of a royal family.

why don't they come out with it already. Look at the two of them. The resemblance is uncanny. It is so obvious that Charles is not his father.

What is the big deal?
He wore a costume to a costume party. I suppose if you dressup like the Devil on Halloween that means you hate God and Jesus and want to be a part of Satan's minion as well?
