Scandal has returned to Britain's royal family, party-loving Prince Harry was photographed in a Nazi German uniform two weeks before the 60th
anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. The photo was snapped last weekend at a "native and colonial" fancy dress party. Harry's brother Prince
William, 22, opted for a rather less controversial "lion and leopard outfit." The royal family immediately went into damage-control mode, issuing a
statement in which Harry -- the younger son of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana -- apologized.

Britain's Prince Harry apologized on Wednesday after a picture of him dressed up as a Nazi soldier was splashed across the front page of a
mass-circulation newspaper.
The pictures in The Sun newspaper triggered outrage, especially from the Jewish community which pointed out that they appear as the royal family
prepares to lead commemorations of the 60th anniversary of the Holocaust.
Thursday's edition of The Sun features Harry, 20, the younger son of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana, attending a fancy dress party wearing
a khaki uniform with an armband emblazoned with a swastika, emblem of the German WWII Nazi Party.

I for one am appalled by Prince Harry’s behavior, he should have known better, he is after all third in line for the British Crown. I also think he
should me made to go to the Auschwitz death camp for a few days. I hope his upcoming military service will teach him some better manners, that is if
they still will accept him.
