Hundreds gathered in central London Thursday for the military funeral of a black World War II veteran, one of the last so-called "Pilots of the Caribbean" who served in the Royal Air Force.
Relatives, Caribbean community organisations and celebrities, including Batman Begins actor Colin McFarlane and Top Boy star Michael Ward, were among the attendees to say goodbye to one of the so-called "Pilots of the Caribbean" - and perhaps the last of the heroes to die.
