Someone just popped their Twitter cherry!
Britain’s Prince Harry sent out his first tweet Thursday and it was posted to the @InvictusLondon account.
Hope everyone will get behind #invictusgames. Great opportunity to support and thank the men and women who have given so much. Harry

The Prince at first seemed a little wary of using the social media site in front of sponsors and reporters and took his time, later joking: “That’s why I joined the Army, I can’t type fast.”
He later joked Mayor of London Boris Johnson, an enthusiastic Twitter user, would be “thrilled” to see him taking to the site.
Inspired by the US Warrior Games, the Invictus Games will take place from September 10 to 14 in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
Now when is Harry going to join Instagram and start posting pics from his night’s out on the town?
