Yesterday, Andrew signed a Memorandum of Understanding on Great War Centenary Commemorations with Vice-Chair of the United States World War One Centennial Commission, Edwin Fountain, at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
The US Centennial Commission is charged with planning, developing, and executing programmes, projects, and activities to commemorate the Centennial of the Great War. Co-operation by the UK and USA is essential to ensure that the sacrifices made by soldiers in World War One is recognised within both countries.
