Duchess Sophie travelled to Wiltshire today to meet with 105-year-old Royal Marines veteran James 'Jim' Wren. On Tuesday morning, she took tea with the war hero and his family at the Sarum Manor Care Home in Salisbury.

Jim showed the Duchess of Edinburgh some old photographs, as the pair chatted away. Photographs included a black and white picture of his former squadron and a commando dagger. 

Sophie, who is patron of the Java Far East Prisoner of War Club 1942, visited Jim ahead of the 80th anniversary of VJ Day on Friday.
