Unknown Scots soldiers laid to rest in France
The remains of two unknown Scottish soldiers thought to have died in World War One have been laid to rest in France.
Their bodies were found during work to build a hospital.
War detectives from the Ministry of Defence (MoD) were called in to try and trace the identities of the two men.
It is now believed they died during the Battle of Loos in 1915.
They were among more than 40 soldiers whose remains were interred during a ceremony in the town, near the city of Lille, on Wednesday.
Hundreds of people, including Princess Anne, attended the burial service, organised by the MoD’s Joint Casualty and Compassionate Centre (JCCC) and the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC).
