00:30And celebrate the completion of its careful restoration.
00:36One hundred years ago, in October 1926, the Duke of Connaught unveiled this memorial in honour of those who had
00:46given their lives in the service of king and country during the Great War.
00:52In his address, he spoke of the Guards' great traditions, which he said have been an example to us all.
01:03He paid tribute to their bravery, endurance and discipline.
