As Charles led the nation at the Cenotaph for the first time as King, the service was likely a poignant moment for the Royal Family.
In a moving ceremony on Friday, the late Queen and
her commitment to war veterans was remembered in an evening attended by members of
the royal family including the Prince and Princess of Wales and Princess Anne.
At around 10:40am, the march past the Cenotaph paused
temporarily while Scottish members of the UK's armed forces,

At 10.58am, the military parade was brought to attention as King Charles
III arrived.
Big Ben rang eleven times to mark the beginning of the two minutes of silence,
and a sombre hush fell over the crowd.
After the two minutes of prayer and reflection had
ended, in an emotional tribute to those killed during the wars of the last century,
members of the military played the Last Post.
