The Queen, accompanied by senior members of the British royal families including the Duke of Edinburgh and Princes Charles and William, led tributes to Britain’s war dead this Remembrance Day at the Cenotaph in London’s Whitehall. The royals were joined by thousands of veteran servicemen who marched past the Cenotaph, as the Queen laid the first poppy wreath to commemorate all of those who gave their lives fighting for their country.
