Well Done, Harry

   Britain's oft maligned Prince Harry is at it again. This time, it's not for some goofy thing he did in Vegas, but something exactly the opposite. Harry, as you well know, served in Afghanistan on an Apache helicopter gunship. What you may not know about him is his apparent passion for helping wounded veterans.
   Last year, he and a group of wounded vets skied and walked to the South Pole for the Walking With The Wounded charity.
   Now, he's "stealing" (to use his own words) the American "Warrior Games", a Paralympic style event for wounded vets, and launching the "Invictus Games" after seeing how "the power of sport can positively impact the lives of wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women".
   In an era where veterans seem to be forgotten about by some governments, it's gratifying to see someone like Harry step up to the plate.
