The King’s other brother, Prince Edward, has big role on Remembrance Sunday

The King called on his youngest brother, the Duke of Edinburgh,
to take on an important duty on Remembrance Sunday.

Prince Edward took the salute at the Veterans’ parade that saw
around 10,000 former service men and women march past the
Cenotaph.

There was applause for the veterans as they made their own
tribute to those who had lost their lives.

Many brought wreaths that were passed to serving military
personnel who placed them on the Cenotaph.

The march past took in Horse Guards Parade where the Duke of
Edinburgh was waiting to salute all those taking part.

Earlier, the Duke had laid his own wreath during the Remembrance
Sunday ceremony.

King Charles laid a wreath on behalf of the nation and appeared
emotional as he stepped back to salute at the Cenotaph.

An equerry then stepped forward to lay a wreath for Queen
Camilla.

The
Prince of Wales, only just back from an official visit to
Brazil, laid a wreath emblazoned with the three feathers of his
crest.

The Princess of Wales, next to Queen Camilla, watched from a
balcony overlooking Whitehall.

A wreath was also laid on behalf of the Duke of Kent. The Duke,
who turned 90 just weeks ago, watched from another balcony
alongside the Duchess of Edinburgh.

There were also tributes from politicians and High Commissioners
with the Cenotaph soon surrounded by circles of red poppies and
brightly coloured flowers, all laid in tribute to those who have
given their lives for their country.

On the eve of Remembrance Sunday, King Charles and Queen Camilla
had been at the Royal Albert Hall for the Festival of
Remembrance.

For the first time, Prince George attended this annual
tradition, arriving with his mum, the Princess of Wales.

The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and the Duke and Duchess of
Gloucester were also present.

Princess Anne is in Australia and has paid her own tributes at
Remembrance Sunday services there.
