Armed forces personnel have set off on a 1,000-mile “March for Honour” to raise £1m for the Royal British Legion.
The Army, Royal Navy, Royal Air Force and Royal Marines teams started from various places in the UK.
Royal Navy team captain, Chief Petty Officer Jan Matthews, said the march honoured those killed in conflict.
The team members, each carrying 40lb of kit, will then head to London’s Royal Albert Hall together in time for Remembrance Day on Thursday.
Each team aims to walk up to 250 miles of the 1,000 miles and will all pass through Wootton Bassett, Wilts, on Tuesday.
