Four French Resistance fighters will be awarded honorary MBEs for their role in World War Two as Boris Johnson welcomes Emmanuel Macron to Downing Street, reports the BBC.
The French president is visiting London on Thursday to commemorate the 80th anniversary of wartime leader Charles de Gaulle's BBC broadcast to occupied France after the 1940 Nazi invasion.
The Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall will also meet Mr Macron.
Mr Johnson paid tribute to the "courage and sacrifice" of the fighters.
The four men - Edgard Tupët-Thomé, 100, Daniel Bouyjou-Cordier, 99, Hubert Germain, 99, and Pierre Simonet, 98 - are surviving members of the Order of Liberation, an honour given by France to those who played an outstanding role in setting France free.
Their MBEs will be presented at a ceremony in France in the coming months.
