What a horrible bunch of posters, all the nasty comments about his education, intelligence, how he isn't qualified enough, someone else deserves it, how its not a proper job etc.

Pay no attention, it's jealousy. Some people resent those better off than themselves.
Imagine if any of the royals got an 'ordinary' job. There would be colleagues taking pictures of them being inebriated and photocopying their bum or similar at the Christmas party. Does anyone remember the photograph of Harry running naked and laughing at a party which was in the press? He was home on leave after active service in Afghanistan partying with other soldiers and friends. He was a soldier for goodness sakes, they always party hard when they come back. Had it been anyone else, nobody would have been interested.
They have very little privacy. Before Prince William was engaged to Kate Middleton she had a job in London and had to leave because of the constant press intrusion.
Harry is doing what he can, making the most of opportunities. Don't forget, he has been in lockdown too, probably still is though I'm not up to date with how things are in the USA. What is certain is that it has been a 'quiet' year for them as it has for all of us. Whatever they had hoped, they have been unable to do much.
Harry is still entitled to call himself Prince Harry because that will not change, he is just not HRH any more.
There's nothing wrong with having 2 'A' levels either, plenty of people on MN write as though they couldn't even pass the 11+! He did very well at Sandhurst which is quite an achievement, then went on to be a fine officer for ten years. He understands man management and how people tick. Officers who leave the armed forces generally walk in to highly paid positions because they have proved their worth.
I wish him, Meghan and Archie well for the future.
