No birthday cruise for Princes William or Harry ~ News: The Internet Forum
Quote
The Queen and other members of the royal family will take a cruise on the Hebridean Princess in a family celebration of the monarch’s landmark birthday.  The Queen is said to be bitterly disappointed that both Princes William and Harry will be unable to join in the fun.

But why? Aren't they allowed to take at least a day or two off for such a reason? After all, it is the Queen's birhtday...

Do the other students get as much time off as they do? As of yet I don't remember seeing anything about other students being hard at work while William and Harry are not.

They were both there for the party in April, and I assume will both be there for TTC- I'm sure the Queen understands- she's been surrounded by the milatary her whole life.

They will be allowed to take leave from the army, but not during their training. William is still in training at Sandhurst and Harry is still in his regimental training, so my assumption is that neither will be able to take any leave (other then what is scheduled for them) until they both complete their training. That is how it is in the US military, I assume the British military follows a similar pattern.

Apparently her birthday takes a year to celebrate-- between planning, partying, trooping and cruising. They're either in the army or not. I doubt the lads in their charge as officers would appreciate it when they leave them in the trenches to go to a ball or a soccer game.

I don't think it's about "letting"

I think that if it is something that they MUST do (which I do believe the thanksgiving ceremony was an obligation that trumps the military) then they need to attend, but for a frufru cruise? No special treatment please.
