Armistice Day (some will recall) is that day, since the armistice it referred to Ended the 'War to End All Wars' on the 11th Hour, of the 11th Day of the 11th Month in 1918, has been celebrated on that anniversary (often with 2 minutes of reflection at 11:00)
Since that war did not, in fact, do the trick (hence it is now called World War I) Armistice Day was, in the USA renamed first as 'All Veteran's Day'—later shortened to 'Veteran's Day'
My heartfelt wishes to all veterans, their families and to the basically uncounted civilians killed in that, and all subsequent wars.
Sadly, the end result is that we have the finest congress that money can buy. It will be a long road back.
