The Queen and members of the
Royal Family attended the Remembrance Sunday ceremony at the
Cenotaph, London. The service honors those that have died in armed
conflicts.
The Dorset Bow Brooch made a repeat appearance for today's somber ceremony, once again anchoring The Queen's cluster of poppies.

She was flanked on the balcony by The Duchess of Cornwall and The Duchess of Cambridge, both wearing brooches of significance. The Duchess of Cornwall wore the badge of the 9/12th Lancers, a piece that belonged to Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother and is selected by Camilla because her late father was a member of the 12th Lancers. The Duchess of Cambridge's brooch is the Codebreakers poppy brooch from the Royal British Legion, honoring those that worked in signal intelligence; her grandmother and great-aunt worked at the Bletchley Park code-breaking facility during World War II. She also wore the
Bahrain Pearl Drop Earrings on loan from The Queen.
