In John Birmingham's Axis of Time Novels, Prince Henry Charles Albert David "Harry" Windsor is an officer of the 22nd SAS Regiment and also is third in the line of succession to the British Throne and the thrones of the other Commonwealth Realms, behind his older brother, King William V and William's two unnamed children.
On 8 May 2005, the Prince entered the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. There, he was known as Officer Cadet Wales instead of using his royal title, and was part of Alamein Company.[1] After graduating from Sandhurst, he was first posted to the Blues and Royals, a Household Cavalry unit, with which he got his first combat experience, on a six month tour of Iraq. He also holds a ceremonial position in the Royal Navy, he was appointed Commodore-in-Chief of Small Ships and Diving in 2006. At some point he stopped being known as 'Wales' and resumed the name 'Windsor'.
Prince Harry had the smoothest transition of all the Multinational Force, being added to the Civil List as soon as the Palace discovered his identity. This also made it easier to have his Regiment enlarged and given Kinlochmoidart House as headquarters. Prince Harry was also the most-promoted character in the series, originally 'having returned to the Regiment at the reduced rank of Captain' he was a Colonel by the time of the D-Day invasion. It is not made clear how Harry fits into the British line of succession of the 1940s.
