Parliament's veterans show support for the Armed Forces
Members of Parliament with previous military service have taken part in an act of remembrance ahead of Sunday's national commemorations.
The group of parliamentarians from across the political spectrum attended the ceremony at the Guards Chapel, within London’s Wellington Barracks, to pay their respects to the fallen of the 2 world wars and conflicts since.
The service, conducted by Guards Chaplain the Reverend Kevin Bell, included the Last Post, the Kohima Epitaph and a 2-minute silence, as well as hymns ‘Eternal Father, Strong To Save’, ‘I Vow To Thee My Country’ and ‘Jerusalem’.
