Prince William photos briefly removed from his website over security concerns

Images showing Prince William's day-to-day working life were briefly removed from his website by authorities Tuesday due to security concerns.

Britain's Ministry of Defense says the photos were taken down after an "administrative oversight" meant that they had not received proper military clearance.

William, 30, is a Royal Air Force search-and-rescue pilot based in Anglesey, Wales. The pictures, which showed him going through his daily routine, included images of unclassified user names, passwords and computer screens. The ministry said in a statement that passwords and user names were reset as a precaution and that the photos were reissued.

The 10 images on the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's official website show him getting himself a cup of tea and making his own bed, among other routine tasks.
