Harry is known simply as "Captain Wales" in the military. Prince Charles is "immensely proud of his son."
A spokesperson at St. James' Palace indicated, "He's approached the deployment with a range of emotions, like any other soldier, and feels both pride and anticipation as he deploys for a job he's trained for, for so long.
"Prince Harry, like any soldier, considers it a great honor to represent his country in Her Majesty's armed forces wherever it chooses to deploy him."
