Three of Britain's oldest war survivors have been honoured for their bravery, resilience and determination against enemy forces.
They were presented with Veterans' Medals in Eastbourne for courageously risking their lives during the Great War of 1914 to 1918.
Two of those honoured were from East Sussex - 106-year-old Fred Lloyd, from Uckfield, and 108-year-old Henry Allingham, from Eastbourne.
103-year-old William Stone, one of only 24 veterans from the ranks of First World War survivors, was also honoured.
Eastbourne mayor Olive Woodall presented the medal to Mr Allingham.
Lord Kitchener, whose great uncle was the secretary of state for war at the start of the Great War, pinned the medals to the lapels of Mr Lloyd and Mr Stone.
