A parade along George Street in Edinburgh marks the 40th anniversary of the Falklands War.
As a special tribute, more than 120 pipers across the globe were organised to play The Crags of Tumbledown Mountain at the same time at 11:00. Pipers joined in from Peru, New Zealand, and the Falklands.
The remembrance service was led jointly by the National Chaplain of the Royal British Legion Scotland Rev Karen Campbell and Rev Angus Smith, former Padre to the 2nd Battalion Scots Guards who served in the Falklands. "I had about 500 lads who were in the same position. These were the ones who were fighting, so it was up to me to help these people as much as possible."
