Soldiers and Royal Marine are repatriated

Four servicemen who were killed in Afghanistan on the same day have been honoured as their cortege passed through Wootton Bassett.

Major James Joshua Bowman, 34, Lieutenant Neal Turkington, 26, and Corporal Arjun Purja Pun, 33, died when they were attacked by a rogue Afghan soldier on 13 July.

Royal Marine Matthew Harrison was shot dead on foot patrol in a separate attack the day before his 24th birthday.
