According to a report published in leading British tabloid 'The Sun', the 26-year-old Royal will experience how the Special Boat Service (SBS) unit deals with drug runners and pirates during his deployment.
 
SBS troops carry out secret missions in the notorious Caribbean, making daring raids on suspicious vessels as well as gathering intelligence.
 
Sources said that William flew to Barbados on Sunday and would spend at least ten days with the SBS. His training entails going on exercise in powerful speed boats that're used to capture sea bandits.
