You don't think serving members of the RAF are entitled to leave? Anyway he's an air-sea rescue pilot......no need for him in Libya... Harry went to Afghanistan--bet that really pissed you off too. Pissed off if they do, pissed off if they don't.

Yes, harry went to the front, sat in a bunker shooting a machine gun at ghosts. As a serving member of his mothers army he takes the shilling he takes the shit.

William had a month off to "prepare" for his "arranged" wedding.

An air sea rescue might have come in handy for the reported drowned civilians heading for Italy.

How much "leave" does your average Joe get in the forces?
Depends on where you are, your rank and a few other variables. I used to get about 8 weeks when I was in....plus special compassionate leave if a close relative died.....plus extra leave for serving in shit holes, ...things like that. Why do you ask, and how do you know what Harry did in Afghanistan....did MOD send you a classified report?
