Prince Harry to Throw it Down in Vegas

Prince Harry is coming to the U.S. for military training, but the royal will manage to see some of our nation’s notable sights while stateside as well. Prince William’s little brother, 26, is getting ready to spend 12 weeks in both California and Arizona in an intense Apache helicopter training course. However, The Daily Mirror reports that party-animal Harry and his fellow pilots will spend a wild 48 hours in Las Vegas midway during his training. A military source told the British newspaper that the Vegas bender is a “traditional” breather for Apache trainees. Prince Harry will surely oblige. “The course doesn’t have much downtime. It’s pretty intense. This is a chance for pilots to let their hair down, kick back and enjoy themselves.” Called “Exercise Crimson Eagle,” Harry’s California and Arizona training is “environmental training, live firing and tactical exercises,” his rep said. Once the “spare” wraps up his Stateside training, he will be a full-fledged Apache pilot, and could be re-deployed to the front lines in Afghanistan. [Photo: WENN.com]
