At 11 a.m. on November 11, 1918, the guns fell silent across the Western Front. After four years of unimaginable carnage, the armistice was signed. The Great War was over.
That moment—that precise hour on that precise day—is why we observe Veteran's Day on November 11th, no matter what day of the week it lands.
My father served in WW1. Burton's brother was wounded in Korea. Our son served in the National Guard. We give thanks and pray for all who serve in the military and work together for a world at peace.
