Repatriation



Standard Bearers of the Royal British Legion honour Private Martin Simon George Bell, 24, of the 2nd Battalion The Parachute regiment, who died on Tuesday 25 January 2011 in Afghanistan.

I attended the repatriation of Private Martin Simon George Bell yesterday, as his body was taken to the Coroner's Office at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford.

It was attended by members of the Royal British Legion and the public who, turned out to show their support for a young soldier who, laid down his life to help make the world a safer place.
