Armistice

Henry Allingham laid a wreath of poppies at the foot of the Cenitaph in London as part of the Armistice ceremony on Sunday 9 November.  Clearly moved by the emotion of the occassion Henry joined Harry Patch and William Stone in remembering those who died during the Wars.  Watched by millions of viewers the three men joined Gordon Brown at Number 10 as the oldest of the last three known Veterans of World War One.
