mls Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Thursday 15 February 8:00 am Mourning salute at Battery Sixtus in Copenhagen and at Kronborg Castle. http://kongehuset.dk/en/media-centre/press-releases/press-release-salute-firing http://kongehuset.dk/nyheder/klokkeringning His Royal Highness Prince Henrik died on Tuesday 13 February 2018. A mourning salute will take place tomorrow at 8.00am. The mourning salute will be carried out from the Sixtus Battery on Holmen in Copenhagen and from the cannons at Kronborg Castle in Helsingør. The Navy’s Military Police Guard on Holmen will fire the cannons at the Sixtus Battery, and soldiers from the Artillery Unit at Oksbøl will fire the cannons at Kronborg Castle. The salute consists of three times 27 shots, which are fired at 30-second intervals (approx. 40 minutes). Seen historically, during Danish warfare, the “dansk løsen” consisting of three shots was fired to indicate the placement of the Danish units. The mourning salute has its roots in the “dansk løsen”, and therefore there is a tradition that it can be divided into three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesouras&Tiaras Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 I won't share pictures on my blog, or twitter page unless they are shared by the danish royal house, but I can't help myself to search for them. It's a funny thing, because there is nothing morbid about that. Just want to see them as they were my family to "support" them by farway. That's what royal families do to you. We really admire them and feel all (or almost all) of their moments, as ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mls Posted February 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 We at this board have decided on a code of conduct and share some of the photos but not beyond a certain line. In this case, the DRF has given DR.dk permission to send live from Fredensborg, which means that they know there will be some photos of the family. The DRF even shared the video of QM at the courtyard yesterday evening. After that, I felt I could post a link to the facebook page but not before to the similar videos that were around.

"Suddenly I stood next to the Crown Princess. There was a great respect for them coming. People gave room, and the family was allowed to be there in their sorrow. - DR's journalist Ditte Haue" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
