The Duke of Cambridge is to be deployed on the Falkland Islands next spring on a tour of duty that will mean he will be away from his new wife for six weeks.
The Duke, a Flight Lieutenant with the RAF, will be posted to the remote outcrop in the South Atlantic from February to March where he will fly search and rescue helicopter missions.
