| Veterans mark Falklands conflict | A ceremony took place at Horse Guards Parade in central London while veterans and islanders shared memories of the conflict in a television link-up. Afterwards, veterans marched up the Mall to Buckingham Palace and aircraft took part in a fly-past. In the Falklands, Armed Forces minister Adam Ingram and Prince Edward laid wreaths. Helicopters and aircraft representing the squadrons that took part in the conflict flew over the Mall. In a dramatic finale, dignitaries, veterans and thousands of spectators watched as the Red Arrows flew in a V-shape to represent the Vulcan bombers that played a vital role in the war and trailed red, white and blue smoke. |
