This morning Prince Harry was awarded a military service medal for his 10 weeks of frontline service in Afghanistan. The 23-year-old prince served in Afghanistan with other members of his Household Cavalry Regiment. British forces have been fighting in Afghanistan for six years — but recently they're struggling to hold out against a resurgent Taliban force — according to US intelligence assessments, the Taliban force now controls at least 10 percent of the country.
Harry's job in Afghanistan included flying secret missions working as a forward air controller — he would call in air strikes to let pilots know where their targets were. Until he was outed earlier this year, Harry was the first member of the royal family to see active war service since Prince Andrew flew helicopters during the Falklands war 26 years ago.
His dad, brother, and his girlfriend Chelsy Davy attended the award service. Harry's brother William received his RAF wings recently and just last week paid a secret visit to British frontline troops.
Here's the burning (admittedly silly, yet completely necessary for a Monday morning) question: who's your favorite military prince? Are you a Team Harry, or a Team William? (Don't worry — Liberty and I have already had a protracted discussion about this — we've chosen sides, and we clearly need to know where y'all stand.)

Team Harry!
He looks more rugged and plus he seems like he would be fun to party with!
1Harry all the way. He's definitely the cute one.
2all i can think of is what an enormous pain in the butt it would be to marry into the British royal family. All of that pomp and circumstance would send me over the edge. Worrying about what you're wearing, who's watching you, taking your picture, etc. It sounds lonely to me!
3Team William - If I have to wear a dress, I'll be a queen
4I am a big fan of Prince Albert, personally.
5I used to have a major Royal crush on Prince Carl Philip of Sweden.
6FinnLover lol so did I, but Harry is just something else. Andrea Casiraghi is also very delicious.
7William for two reasons: 1. I think he's better looking. 2. Who wouldn't want to be Queen one day? (Secretly: I think William is the only legitimate child ... shhhhh.)
8oh i am SOOO down with the GINGER PRINCE!!! i love me that red hair and those ruddy cheeks!
9I'm a William all, all the way. It's good to be Queen
10Oh, my goodness. Y'all only like William for the King factor!
11Although he's going to be bald soon, which I find sexy.
12William is going to be a fugly old man you can just tell dad's genes will work on that poor boy, Harry on the other hand is very sexy, he seems just a wee bit more human than William, form going to Afghanistan to the orphanage he supports in Lesotho and the fact that he's dating a Zimbabwean is the icing on the cake for me.
13Harry! He seems like he actually has a personality. William seems like a robot to me.
14I definitely prefer Harry. I think he's better looking and he definitely seems more fun!
15I am actually partial to Prince Haakon of Norway myself.
16I'm not a royal’s fan watcher but I have seen documentaries on both princes and I genuinely admire both of them equally. They have had a well rounded education. They are quite humble despite their positions and they both engender many of the qualities that made their mother the people’s princess.
17Team Harry

It's William for me, I love his relationship with Kate - get married now!
19I don't care about the Princes. I care about this:
The Taliban force now controls at least 10 percent of the country.
Um, Hello!! This group is a huge threat to US security, and we have let them multiply like Gremlins over in Afghanistan and Pakistan! Time for a change in strategy!
20Definitely Prince William! Had a huge crush on him when I was like 12
I seriously
thought we'd meet and get married some day 
21Way to run the bus off the road Jillness, LOL!
22I love to go off roadin'!
23I say we Helicopter drop Hagee into the Taliban camp with a made in the U.S.A. collapsible bully pulpit and let him channel the wrath of God up the Talibanites.
24Definitely Prince William, he seems much more sensible.
Prince Harry would be great to have around for holidays and such, though!
25Prince Harry is more my type; although both brothers are handsome men.
26Harry FTW! He doesn't have the telltale male pattern baldness, he's a ginger, and he's a bit of a cheeky one, which is good because i know the queen would loathe me.
27Team Harry. He's the cuter of the two and has the more interesting (cheeky!) personality, in my opinion.
