Falkirk Provost Billy Buchanan joined veterans at Grangemouth’s Royal British Legion branch, in Dundas Street, just before noon on Saturday, August 21, to pay respects to service personnel who gave their lives in past conflicts and those who still continue to protect the country.
It was a more intimate affair than previous years, but everyone carried out their duties with sincerity and dignity.
