In a moment steeped in Army tradition, one that goes back two centuries, a general pins a medal on the chest of a proud soldier.
What the medal stands for has not changed: service, courage and commitment to the regiment and country.
Here, 200 men and women of the 1st Battalion, The Royal Yorkshire Regiment, were being recognised for their recent operational service in Somalia and Kosovo, in front of more than 700 spectators at ITC Catterick.
