Princes Tribute
British royal Prince Harry remembered his embattled pals fighting in Iraq as the London concert dedicated to the memory of his mother got underway on a sombre note on Sunday (01Jul07).Harry joined brother Prince William onstage at Wembley Stadium in front of an estimated crowd of 63,000 after Sir Elton John kicked off the Concert For Diana with a stirring rendition of Your Song.The two princes nervously read from handheld cue cards as they thanked the masses for helping them celebrate what would have been their late mother Diana, Princess of Wales' 46th birthday.Harry then made a point of saluting friends serving in the Middle East.He said, "I would also like to take this opportunity to say hi to all the guys in A Squadron of the Household Cavalry, who are serving out in Iraq at the moment."I wish I was there with you. I'm sorry I can't be. But, to all of those on operations at the moment, we'd both like to say 'Stay safe.'"Security issues forced Harry to abandon plans to join the Household Cavalry regiment in Iraq.The two princes then introduced their late mother's favourite band, Duran Duran, who dedicated hits Wild Boys to the young royals and Rio to the memory of their mother.Tagged in Prince Harry
