Hundreds of soldiers, friends and relatives attended yesterday’s service in his home-town of Grimsby, Lincs.
Major Khashi Sharifi said Trooper Pearson, of the Queen’s Royal Lancers, had made the “ultimate sacrifice”.
Prince William, 25 – who flew the body to RAF Lyneham, Wilts, last week – privately met Robert’s family.
He said he was “honoured” to have been part of the operation. |
