A teenage Guardsman who walked behind the Queen 's coffin during her funeral has tragically been found dead at his army barracks.
Trooper Jack Burnell-Williams, 18, was found at the military house in London on Wednesday, September 28. Police and paramedics were called to the Hyde Park facility in Knightsbridge at 3.48pm in an attempt to save the young man, reports the Mail Online.
Despite their efforts, Burnell-Williams was sadly pronounced dead at the scene. The teenager took on an important role at Her Majesty's funeral last Monday, less than two weeks before he passed away.
