Good points. My feeling is it was sent just to Harry, though.
Someone on Twitter said it was a slap in the face to Will that he was not invited and that it must sting William. I think it just that Harry is much closer to the Obama.
That's just ridiculous. William and Harry have their own things apart from each other too. Neither of them is going to be 'stung' about not getting invited to X.

Might it be seen as a bit too political for William at this point to associate too closely w/ Obama since the current president of the USA is from a different political party?
IF it were really verboten [amongst Princes] Prince Michael of Kent would NEVER have worn a uniform, and HMQ would have had a sharp word with her grandson beforehand...
Come on, most senior BRF-males have served in several units, even several branches, and hold a position of some sort in up to several regiments.
If they were to conform to the various rules and traditions they would have to be clean-shaven and wear false beards. ?
In contrast most servicemen (I think we can safely omit most women from this discussion...) belong to one unit at a time.
It's typical of Daily Mail to make a song and dance act out of such a trivial matter.
Has Harry earned the right to wear the uniform? - Yes.
Is he a disgrace to the uniform/military? - No.
Did he wear sandals with the uniform or the cap turned the other way around? - No.
Did he behave in an undignified manner? - No.
So, is there a problem? - Nope.
