Where you can go to honour the fallen for Remembrance weekend
It's the time of year where the nation gathers together to pay their respects and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
There will be parades, services and moments to reflect as cities and towns across the region mark Armistice Day on Saturday. November 11 and Remembrance Day on Sunday, November 12.
It will see veterans, civic leaders, members of the Royal British Legion and the public gather in town squares, at cenotaphs and in front of council houses to honour armed forces members who have died in the line of duty.
Members of the public will be able to line the streets to see the parades go by and there will be opportunities to lay wreathes and pause for two minutes of silence, preceded by The Last Post and followed by The Reveille.
All council and civic leaders will be part of events across the region on both Sunday for Remembrance Day and Armistice Day on Saturday, including large scale events at the National Memorial Arboretum in Alrewas and RAF Museum in Cosford.
There will be services and events taking place across the region, so here is a list of the major events:
