* At the eventful party, he also serenaded swimmer Missy for her 18th birthday
* Earlier he visited the Walter Reed National Military Center and chatted with injured soldiers

Prince Harry has expressed his concern at the 'visual impact' of wind farms at a reception during his American tour - echoing the views held by his father.
