Service held at the Cenotaph to mark Armistice Day
Image of Lance Sergeant Stuart Laing, who will perform the Last Post and Reveille at the Cenotaph in London today (11/11/2020) to mark Armistice Day.
The bugle he will use was recovered from the mud and blood of the Somme in 1915. Its shrill notes would have been used then to signal troops in the fug and heat of battle. Today troops are issued orders through the latest digital technology and bugles such as this one have an almost exclusively ceremonial role.
One hundred years ago thousands gathered in Whitehall to witness the unveiling of the Stone Cenotaph 100 years ago by King George V. Lance Sergeant Stuart Laing from the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards recreated the most poignant of moments at the exact time, in the exact place, that it occurred 100 years ago, by playing the Last Post to mark the start and the end of the silence on an instrument that had called men into battle in the First World War.
He said: 'This bugle was discovered on the Somme, beside the body of a Welsh Guards soldier who will have fought during the infamous Battle of the Somme. Its numbered 10 which means it is only the 10th ever produced for the regiment. Taking part today is massively important, not just to me but to everyone who enjoys the freedoms those soldiers sacrificed everything for. To be able to share a connection with this event is a huge honour.'
