(CMR) The Cayman Islands joined thousands across the Commonwealth on Sunday, 13 November, in observing Remembrance Day, which commemorates veterans who died in the line of duty.
Ceremonies were held across the Cayman Islands, with the Grand Cayman ceremony at the Cenotaph outside Elmslie Memorial United Church in George Town and the Cayman Brac ceremony in front of the War Memorial Cenotaph in Stake Bay.
King Charles III led Remembrance Day commemorations in London on Sunday for the first time, laying a newly designed wreath after a two-minute silence at The Cenotaph war memorial.
UK officials said this year’s service is dedicated both to fallen soldiers in wars past and to Ukrainians fighting against Russia’s invasion.
