ARMISTICE DAY
http://www.worldwar1.com/
This is Armistice Day or Remembrance Day or Veterans Day or Victory
Day or World War I Memorial Day. The name of this special day may be
different in different places throughout many nations; but its
significance is the same.
It was on this day at 11 a.m. in 1918 that World War I ceased. The
Allied and Central Powers signed an armistice agreement at 5 a.m. in
Many still bow their heads in remembrance at the 11th hour of this the
11th day of the 11th month.
I would like to thank those who serve in the armed forces of their
country.
Thank you,
darkshadows
