41 Gun Salute for HRH The Prince Philip

[Mike]

I started this because the existing thread is getting, "not nice".

The gun salute is being fired in many locations, round the UK,
several cities, Portsmouth Naval Base and 2 ships, as he was in
the Navy during WWII.

The salute is one shot every 1 minute.

Australia's Parliament House marks Prince Philip's death with 41-gun salute. RAAF tribute.

It has been announced that his funeral will be next Saturday.

His coffin will be carried on a specially designed Land Rover
for the job, he helped with the design himself.

He will be taken out of one door of the chapel inside Windsor
Castle and driven to a door at the other end, I believe.

Mike.

It pleases me to think that he is being given the service he requested.
