After spending 10 years Prince Harry ends military career

He will now spend the next three months volunteering for front-line conservation projects in Namibia, South Africa, Tanzania and Botswana, Kensington Palace has confirmed.
During his career, the royal qualified as an Apache Aircraft Commander and most recently undertook an attachment with the Australian Defence Force, Sky News reported.
"I dread to think where I'd be without the Army," he admitted recently, as he contemplated the end of his stint in the forces.
Harry has confessed it was a tough decision to leave the military and said his experiences would stay with him for the rest of his life.
After the announcement, Sir Nicholas Carter, Chief of the General Staff, said that the prince had "achieved much in his ten years as a soldier and has been at the forefront throughout his service".
Harry recently revealed how he had dreamt of being a career soldier even as a young boy.
He said: "I did it because since I was a kid I enjoyed wearing the combats, I enjoyed running around with a rifle, jumping in a ditch and living in the rain, and stuff.
"But then when I grew up, it became more than that, it became an opportunity for me to escape the limelight.
"I've had an epic 10 years, I've had great fun. The Army keep giving me great jobs, and I can never thank them enough for that."
His work in Africa will involve him being fully embedded with conservationists and he will live the same accommodation.
Harry has already admitted he feels more himself in Africa than anywhere else whether it is helping aids orphans or witnessing land mine clearance projects in the continent.
Last month, he said: "I feel more myself in Africa... I've been wanting to do it for the past five years, and being in the Army I just never, ever had the opportunity to do it.
