Veterans parade for 90th anniversary of World War I

FOUR World War I veterans - the youngest of them 104 - have paraded in central London for the 90th anniversary of a conflict that killed around 10 million people and shaped the modern world.

Only 23 British veterans of the conflict are still alive.

Close to 1,000 people, including Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott, watched as a bugler sounded the Last Post and a piper played a lament while the veterans, three of them in wheelchairs, remembered their fallen comrades.
