As the world commemorated Remembrance Day, army personnel laid a new plaque at the famous Commando Memorial in the Highlands to honour those who died in the Falklands conflict.
The plaque was unveiled by a former member of 59 Royal Engineers, John Monks, and Captain of the 59 Independent Commando Squadron Royal Engineers, Stefan Siemieniuch, at 11am on Armistice Day at the 17-foot Commando Statue at Spean Bridge in Lochaber.
It is to commemorate five individuals from the Royal Engineers who died during the 1983 Falklands War against Argentina, stating their full name, rank and date of death on the subscription.
Mr Monks said: “It was a huge honour and very humbling to be able to do it.”
In Inverness, the Royal British Legion Scotland held a two-minute silence on Armistice Day, as the prelude to hosting its remembrance service at the cenotaph at Cavell Gardens War Memorial, which was attended by around 2,000 people.
Inverness provost, Helen Carmichael, and Highland Council’s armed forces and veterans champion, Roddy Balfour, were accompanied by fellow members of Highland Council’s City of Inverness Area Committee.
Provost Carmichael laid a wreath from the local authority on behalf of the Highland population.
The events were organised by The Royal British Legion Scotland and supported by Highland Council in partnership with Poppy Scotland.
A service was also held at Oban War Memorial, following a parade from Corran Hall to the monument. Attendees held a two-minute silence before a number of wreaths were laid in honour of the fallen.
During a service organised by the Royal British Legion (Scotland) at the Wick War Memorial, councillor Donnie Mackay, chairman of the Caithness Committee, also laid a wreath.
Meanwhile at Brora War Memorial, councillor Deirdre Mackay marched through the village centre to the war memorial before placing down a wreath.
Remembrance services also took place in Beauly, Drumnadrochit, Fort Augustus, Kirkhill and Invermoriston war memorials, as well as Skye and Lochalsh.
A huge poppy brought the Remembrance Day message home to people in Lochaber, thanks to a display in a local shopping centre.
The giant floral tribute – in memory of all those who died for their country – was created by Marina MacLeod in the window of her bridal shop in Caol.
