EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant photo print, we are transported back to a significant moment in history - the homecoming of the Unknown Warrior. On November 10th, 1920, Boulogne, France witnessed a solemn procession that paid tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice during World War One. As we gaze at this image captured by Daily Mirror for Memory Lane Prints, our eyes are drawn to the cortege passing through Boulogne's streets. The atmosphere is heavy with grief and respect as military troops escort a coffin draped in an elegant flag. This symbolic representation of an unknown soldier serves as a reminder of all those brave souls whose identities may forever remain anonymous.

As we reflect on this powerful photograph from nearly a century ago, let us remember not only the sacrifices made by these soldiers but also their families left behind.
