LONDON (AP) - Fresh from charming leaders at the Group of Seven summit, Queen Elizabeth II was back at her residence at Windsor Castle on Saturday to view a military parade to mark her official birthday.The 95-year-old monarch sat on a dais to watch the ceremony that despite ongoing social distancing restrictions did not disappoint on the pomp and pageantry front.
If she was tired after meeting G-7 leaders, including U.S. President Joe Biden, on Friday evening, it didn't show.The ceremony is a gift from the Household Division of army regiments, which has a close affinity with the monarch.
It featured soldiers who have played an integral role in the COVID-19 response, as well as those who have been serving on military operations.
