Walter Tull is among those who have remembered on beaches across Britain today
WALTER TULL, the first black officer in the British Army has been remembered with a special tribute on one of Britain’s beaches today.
As the world commemorates 100 years since the end of the First World War, efforts are being made to ensure that the contributions of black soldiers are not being forgotten.
An impressive portrait of Tull, who commanded white officers in the British Army during World War One, and later went on to be one of Britain’s first black footballers, has been drawn on Ayr Beach, Scotland.
