The Princess Royal has unveiled The Cape Town Labour Corps Memorial in South Africa.
Princess Anne paid respect to the 1,700 military labourers who perished marking their vital but long-overlooked role in military operations.
"This memorial is a reminder of a shared but sometimes difficult past and it is also a demonstration that, with honesty, openness and working together, we can make a difference," said Princess Anne.
