Harry Mayhead, Pearly King of Bow Bells who served in Egypt and France for the Royal Army Service Corp. in WWII, plants poppies at the Tower of London earlier today. ‘Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red’ is the evolving art installation at the tower, and 888,246 poppies will be planted in the moat by volunteers with the last poppy being planted on Nov. 11. Each poppy represents a British or Colonial fatality in the First World War. (AP Photo/Kirsty Wigglesworth)
