King leads thanks at VE service
The Gazette
|May 09, 2025
THE King has led the nation in honouring the sacrifices of those who brought peace to Europe 80 years ago.
-
Charles left a floral tribute at the Grave of the Unknown Warrior, close to Westminster Abbey's west door, on behalf of the nation and Commonwealth, during a poignant moment.
A handwritten message from the King, recognising those who fought and died in the Second World War, read: "We will never forget."
A national two minutes silence was observed before the simple ceremony, and among the congregation were veterans of the conflict who helped to defeat fascism on the Continent during a war that lasted almost six years.
