Hundreds of Titchfield locals turned out to honour the memory of village servicemen who lost their lives while serving their country.
Following a moving service at St Peter’s Church the vicar, choir, scouts and congregation processed through The Square to the memorial at the Parish Rooms.
This year marks the 80th anniversary of the start of the Second World War.
Before the traditional Two Minute Silence members of the three main armed services read out the names of village residents who lost their lives in the First World War, the Second World War and in conflicts since.
Marine Bugler, Mr Jon Yates, played the Last Post, and at the end of the silence, Reveille.
The first wreath was then laid on behalf of The Royal British Legion followed by the Armed Forces and village organisations.
In poignant tribute, members of the congregation were invited to come forward and place their own crosses among the wreathes.
Then came the famous words of the Kohima Epitaph read by a member of the Scouts…
“When you go home, Tell them of us and say,
“For your tomorrow, We gave our today.”
