A Second World War veteran has tackled anti-capitalist protesters camped outside St Paul's Cathedral in London over fears the demonstration will impede his regiment's efforts to mark Remembrance Sunday. Wally Harris, a 91-year-old former Rolls-Royce mechanic from Bracknell, Berkshire, is concerned his City of London regiment will not be able to parade around the churchyard on November 13. The veteran fought on Gold Beach in Normandy on D-Day and was part of the force that liberated Brussels. His efforts were honoured with the military medal for gallantry.
