  • A detail of a second world war Canadian veteran's chest, festooned with gleaming military campaign medals that symbolise an era of conflict, warfare and especially of survival. Seen as a close-up of polished silver, gold and zinc-alloy, we see only the upper body minus the face of this old soldier whose campaigns include the D-Day landings at Normandy in 1944 because at the bottom of his rack of fine insignia is a badge denoting the Normandy Veterans Association. Elsewhere, a medal is worn for service in Palestine. The unseen gentleman wears a Canadian pin at the top and the contribution of his fellow-countrymen as members of the British Commonwealth is recognised in battlefield cemeteries around the world. But on this day, the 11th November, old soldiers like him march past London's Cenotaph to remember friends who did not return from war.

  • In memory of fallen WW2 Polish Air Force crews, are the front gates of Polish War Memorial, on 6th November 2019, in South Ruislip, Northolt, London, England. The Polish War Memorial is in memory of airmen from Poland who served in the Royal Air Force as part of the Polish contribution to World War II. The memorial was designed by Mieczyslaw Lubelski, who had been interned in a forced labour camp during the war. It is constructed from Portland stone with bronze lettering and a bronze eagle, the symbol of the Polish Air Force. The original intention was to record the names of all those Polish airmen who lost their lives while serving during WW2 a total of 2,408 but there was not enough space for this and, as a compromise, the names of the 1,241 who died in operational sorties are there instead.

  • The rare Victoria Cross is worn on the chest of the celebrated Nepali war veteran Bhanu Bhagta Gurung (also written Bhanubhakta), an ex-soldier of the British Gurkha regiment who in the second world war, earned his medals from repeated bravery against Japanese positions in Burma. He sits here on the terrace of his home, above the misty valley of Gorkha, Central Nepal. He is one of the last survivors of the remarkably brave men  who helped defeat the enemy in the jungles of south-east Asia. Gurung is the name of his Nepalese tribe (like the Sherpas who also come from the high Himalayan Kingdom). His company commander described him as "a smiling, hard-swearing and indomitable soldier who in a battalion of brave men was one of the bravest". Born September 1921 - died March 1 2008.
