The announcement of Prince Harry and Meghan Merkel's desire to retire from the royal office and relocate to Canada this week has drawn severe criticism from British military veterans who served with Prince Harry in Afghanistan. One of the prince's fierce criticisms is a reserve officer named Derek Hunt, whose son Nathan served on Harry's side and rescued him from a side charge of the Taliban fighters. Nathan, who served in Afghanistan for a very long time, later suffered from trauma and committed suicide at the age of 39 due to his mental state.

"Harry's retirement from the royal and British homes and the abandonment of the kingdom are a slap in the face of everyone who served with him and defended him and fought alongside him," Derek went out against Prince Harry, in remarks in the Daily Mail. "Nathan saved Harry from a powerful charge that was supposed to hurt him. That's why I think his abandonment is a backlash to Nathan and the other fighters.

"The Prince visited us and wrote us a condolence letter after Nathan committed suicide. He also participated in fighter-trapped ventures and now it's like he lost it and abandons us." It should be noted that the Prince has indeed led many international ventures for fighters who have become disabled in combat or who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder.

The case in which Nathan rescued the prince occurred while Harry and Nathan were stationed in a penetrating post in the Afghan desert. The two became long friends together. One day, an alert for the Taliban's attempt to injure a prince came, and a senior officer ordered him to be returned to the main camp. At this point Nathan confronted the officer and determined that the way in which he wanted to evacuate the prince was dangerous. This insistence saved the prince's life because the road was indeed heavily hardened by sophisticated cargoes that would have destroyed the prince's caravan if he and his companions had driven away. He was honored for this rescue at the time.

The Prince himself, who served as a fighter in Afghanistan from 2008-2007 as well as a helicopter commander in 2015, did not respond to the harsh criticism and apparently not for nothing. In the United Kingdom, it is believed that the criticism and conference of his friends in arms is the most painful and therefore he keeps silent.
