Prince Harry hopes to join troops on Pole trek

The 25-year-old prince, who is patron of the four-week trek campaign, launched the event in London Friday.

The participants — ex-soldiers who lost their limbs while serving — aim to cover up to 300 miles (483 kilometers) across the frozen Arctic Ocean, taking the Siberian approach to the North Pole next spring. They hope to become the first amputees to reach the pole.
