EDITORS COMMENTS
November 11, 1920: The Unknown Warrior's Final Farewell - A Solemn Procession at the Cenotaph The eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1920 marked the end of a significant chapter in the history of the United Kingdom. The Unknown Warrior, an unidentified British soldier killed in the line of duty during the First World War, was laid to rest at Westminster Abbey in a poignant and symbolic ceremony. Twelve of the most distinguished military leaders of the time, representing the four services, served as pall bearers for the solemn occasion. In this evocative photograph from the Illustrated London News, the twelve war leaders can be seen carrying the coffin of the Unknown Warrior towards the Cenotaph. From left to right, they are Sir Hedworth Meux, Earl Beatty, Sir Henry Jackson, General Gatliff (Royal Marines), Sir Charles Madden, Air Marshal Sir Hugh Trenchard, Lord Methuen, Lord French, Earl Haig, Sir Henry Wilson, Lord Horne, and Lord Byng. These men, of the highest distinction in the British military, bore the weight of the nation's collective grief as they paid their respects to the fallen soldier. The ceremony was a powerful testament to the sacrifices made by the brave men and women who served their country during the Great War. The Unknown Warrior's tomb became a symbol of hope and unity, reminding the world that the sacrifices made during the war would never be forgotten. This photograph stands as a poignant reminder of that historic moment and the enduring legacy of the First World War.
