As an act of remembrance, I’ve gathered a few photos of monuments and statues that I discovered in different parts of London.

It’s worth remembering those who were called to sacrifice their lives to fight in the war. Soldiers from Africa and the Caribbean were also called to the Mother country to fight in the war.

Soldiers from Nigeria, Ghana (formerly The Gold Coast)  Gambia, Sierra Leone and other African countries were recruited to protect the borders during the First World War.
