Macron marks de Gaulle speech with visit to UK

The United Kingdom honored four French Resistance fighters on Thursday for battling fascism during World War II while the country also came to terms with the death of a legendary British wartime figure.

Vera Lynn, a morale-boosting singer who was known as the Forces' Sweetheart, died aged 103. She was known for singing We'll Meet Again and The White Cliffs of Dover.

The BBC reported that British Prime Minister Boris Johnson had said her "charm and magical voice entranced and uplifted our country in some of our darkest hours".
