Prince Harry Photographed In Nazi Uniform at Party

HeadlineJan 13, 2005

In Britain, a photograph has been published of Prince Harry wearing a Nazi uniform at a costume party held last week. Harry is the youngest son of Prince Charles. The 20-year-old apologized last night saying it was a poor choice of costume. The Guardian reports the episode served to stir ugly memories of the royal family’s links with the Nazi regime. King Edward VIII, Harry’s great-great uncle, was a Nazi sympathiser, while Princess Michael of Kent’s father was a Nazi party member. The scandal comes just two weeks before the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, the Nazi concentration camp where more than a million Jews were murdered.
