Prince Harry is taking his sexy self to Sin City for some reckless fun. The Daily Mirror reports that it's actually tradition for Apache trainees to wild out in Vegas in the middle of their training. Harry will spend 12 weeks taking helicopter training courses in California and Arizona soon.

"The bender is a "traditional" breather for Apache trainees. "The course doesn't have much downtime. It's pretty intense. This is a chance for pilots to let their hair down, kick back and enjoy themselves."

Once Prince Harry completes his training, he will be an official Apache pilot and could re-deploy to the front lines of Afghanistan by summer 2012. Talk about a great reason to get it in! Cheers to the freakin' weekend, I'll drink to that.
