Bearing up after charity hike
MASCOT to the army, Baxterbear, was all smiles after completing a gruelling 425-mile March from Scotland to London with the Coldstream Guards.
The friendly bear waved to the crowd at Glencorse Barracks, where he was greeted by soldiers and children of the Royal High Fusiliers 2nd Battalion and The Royal Regiment of Scotland at their base.
The walking team raised funds for the ABF Soldiers' Charity, formerly known as the Army Benevolent Fund.
