All across the UK today, ceremonies and service will be taking place to remember the fallen men and women who lost their lives in all past and current wars.
The Queen will be leading the tributes at the Cenotaph in London while troops on active duty will be carrying out their own services in Iraq and Afghanistan.
This year's events fall just two days before the 90th anniversary of the armistice, the end of World War I, where around 900,000 men and women in the British armed forces died during the conflict.
Three veterans, the youngest aged 108, will be at the Cenotaph in Whitehall on Tuesday, 90 years to the minute since the ceasefire.
