Sjt Cooper VC Ceremony

The government supplied a " VC Paving Stone " to all councils where the recipients of all the WW1 VC's were born. A service of dedication and unveiling is held 100 years to the day of the action for which the VC was awarded.
Some of the photos were used on the Rifles Blog LINK

Many more of my photos are in the current issue of "The Bugle" the journal of the rifles, which is a 250 page glossy high class magazine with a price of about £15. It can be downloaded for free at the bottom of the Blog page. If you are interested my photos are on pages 189,192,top of 193,194,195,bottom of 196,197,199, and a few of the obituaries.

That must have been an interesting event to attend and be able to photograph. I don't think I will be reading "The Bugle" cover to cover - it's a massive publication! But thanks for the opportunity to delve into something different; your pictures are excellent.
