The National Service of Remembrance at the Cenotaph, coordinated by DCMS alongside colleagues across government, the Armed Forces and veterans' organisations, commemorates the service and sacrifice of military and civilian personnel who served alongside British and Allied forces in the two world wars and subsequent conflicts. The service honours all those who contributed to the Allied war effort, including those who served from what was then Rhodesia.
