The Queen made a poignant visit to Woolwich barracks on Friday morning to pay tribute to murdered soldier Drummer Lee Rigby, who was tragically murdered last week.
The 87-year-old monarch was due to meet officers and soldiers associated with 25-year-old Drummer Rigby, who was stationed at the South London barracks, at the end of her visit.Her Majesty's engagement was a long standing commitment and she would be privately acknowledging the events of last week, according to a Buckingham Palace spokeswoman.
A sea of flowers line the railings of the entrance to the base, honouring the soldier and dad-of-one who lost his life in a horrific attack nine days before her visit.
The Queen, who was dressed in mint green, was expected to speak to Drummer Rigby's fellow servicemen and women in the Sergeants' mess at the King's Troop base.
