Summary

Description
English: Service personnel stand in the darkness as Camp Bastion's vigil site remains one of the only parts of the sprawling desert camp that is lighted.

Personnel from all three services of the Armed Forces as well as the US Marine Corps gathered in Camp Bastion tonight to commemorate the start of World War One.

Around 400 personnel congregated at the Vigil Site for a parade illuminated by the lights of military vehicles and the site itself, before a ceremony presided over by Force Senior Chaplain Wing Commander Geoffrey Withers. The event was attended by senior commanders including US Marine Corps Brigadier-General Dan Yoo, the Commandant General of Regional Command (Southwest) (RC SW) and Brigadier Rob Thomson, Deputy Commander RC (SW).
