Dame Vera Lynn was honoured with a Spitfire flypast in her beloved Sussex village before her funeral, as crowds sung a spontaneous rendition of We'll Meet Again.
The adored singer, who entertained troops with morale-boosting visits to the front line during the Second World War, died aged 103 on June 18.
Crowds gathered in the picturesque village of Ditchling on Friday, where she lived for 60 years, to say goodbye to their "special local lady".
