The Field of Remembrance, which was on display at Romsey Show, has been replanted in the Romsey War Memorial by district Poppy Appeal organiser Kath Garland and her husband Terry.

Each of the 374 crosses bears a name of a serviceman from the Romsey area killed in the Great War.

On Sunday a short service and wreath-laying ceremony took place in the park before the parade moved onto Romsey Abbey for the main service.

A former Grenadier Guard and his father were among those who took part in Romsey’s Remembrance Day Parade.

They were 47-year-old Christopher Bone and his dad Robert, who is 80 and was in the Royal Tank Regiment.

“It is very important to remember all those chaps we’ve known over the years and show our respects for fallen soldiers. I’ve been taking part in the Romsey parade for many years,” said Christopher, who lives in Awbridge.

He joined the Grenadier Guards in 1986 and was posted to Belfast in Northern Ireland the following year.

“I was sent there two days after I passed out,” added Christopher, who left the Army in 1994.

His dad was involved in the Korean campaign in 1950 and received a United Nations Korean Campaign Medal for his services.
