Kate joins with other members of royal family for Afghanistan commemoration at St Paul's

Queen Elizabeth and no less than 13 other members of the British Royal Family on Friday attended a service commemorating the end of British involvement in the Afghanistan War. The service at St Paul's Cathedral in London was also attended by many veterans of the war, including the Queen's grandson Prince Harry.

The Windsors were in full force Friday, with not only the Queen and Prince Philip at the service, but also Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall, Prince William and Catherine, Prince Harry, the Dukes of York, Kent and Gloucester, the Princess Royal and her husband, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex.
