Did that insidious force, "The Media," force the British army to pull England's Prince Harry out of Afghanistan? The second successor to the throne, after being rejected from an assignment in Iraq, had been with his regiment in Helmand province until some news sources, notably the Drudge Report, leaked the news that he was in Afghanistan.

Harry was scheduled to return to England in a few weeks, but the military was forced to withdraw him early over concerns for his safety.

Critics say the media was observing an informal but binding embargo of news on Harry's whereabouts. Defenders counter that all soldiers are in danger, whether or not they carry the last name Windsor. What's the most dangerous place you've ever traveled?

Celeb Travel: Leave Namibia Alone!

The last time Namibia was in the news, it was because of the invasion of Super World Travelers Brangelina, who chose the country for Angelina Jolie to give birth to daughter Shiloh. Now England's Prince Harry has pulled the spotlight to the African country, although not with such positive results.

Maybe the prince can undo the damage done by the party photos of his friends and himself in Namibia once he's closer to the throne. Like any 23-year-old with no job, HRH spent his holiday drinking, attaching shot glasses to his nipples and getting what looks like a wicked sunburn. In response to his performance, Jenna and Barbara Bush released a statement titled, "See, We Did This In Argentina But At Least We Didn't Make a Video."
