THE KING will lead the nation in observing a two-minute silence at 11am today to remember our fallen heroes.

'Today we honour all who protect our country and its way of life...'

In his first Remembrance Sunday since his Coronation, Charles will be joined by members of the Royal Family, the Prime Minister, senior politicians, defence chiefs and faith leaders in honouring the British and Commonwealth troops who have lost their lives in conflicts across the globe.

It comes after Defence Secretary Grant Shapps yesterday laid a wreath at the Cenotaph to mark the Armistice that ended the First World War on November 11, 1918.

After the two-minute silence today almost 10,000 veterans and 800 members of the Armed Forces will march past the national war memorial in tribute to the servicemen and women that made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.

Thousands are expected to line Whitehall in central London, with millions more set to watch live TV broadcasts of the National Service of Remembrance at the Cenotaph on the BBC and Sky News.

The parade will leave Horse Guards at 9.50am to march along Whitehall and be in place at the Cenotaph by 10.50am, with His Majesty arriving at 10.59am to lead the two-minute silence.
