Remembrance Sunday is a chance to
think about friends who are no longer with me, and their families.

But today is also an opportunity to remember the good times, with those who are still here.

It’s a moment to reflect on the amazing bonds that exist across our Armed Forces.

First Sea Lord Sir Gwyn Jenkins @GenGJenkinsRM 1d

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

#LestWeForget

On Tuesday I joined the Defence Secretary in Liverpool to meet King Willem-Alexander, Dutch ministers and my @kon_marine counterpart VA Harold Liebregs onboard HNLMS Johan de Witt.

A great opportunity to strengthen ties between 🇬🇧 & 🇳🇱 and our respective defence industries.

In the Cathedral of the Sea, we honoured Queen Elizabeth II with the Laying Up of The Queen’s Colours.

Her Late Majesty was the daughter, wife and mother of naval officers. The @RoyalNavy ran like a thread throughout her life.

Today, we said our final farewell.
