EDITORS COMMENTS
"November 11, 1920: The Unknown Warrior's Journey to Westminster Abbey The solemn procession of the Unknown Warrior, a soldier selected from the battlefields of World War I to represent the countless lives lost in the conflict, made its way through the streets of London on Armistice Day, 11th November 1920. The gun carriage, pulled by six black horses, was a sight that drew crowds of people from all walks of life to pay their respects to the fallen hero. The Unknown Warrior's journey began at Victoria Station, where his coffin was received with full military honors. The procession then made its way through the bustling streets of London, with the crowd growing larger with each step. The atmosphere was one of somber reflection and deep respect, as the people of London came together to honor the sacrifices made by the soldiers of the Great War. As the procession approached Westminster Abbey, the crowd grew even larger, with people lining the streets and gathering outside the abbey to catch a glimpse of the historic moment. The pageantry of the event was a testament to the importance of the Unknown Warrior's burial, which was seen as a symbol of national mourning and a tribute to the sacrifices made during the war. The Unknown Warrior's journey to Westminster Abbey was a poignant and memorable moment in British history, one that brought the country together in a time of grief and reflection. The images of the procession, with the gun carriage making its way through the crowded streets, are a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the enduring impact of the conflict on the British people."
