All silent on the Western Front

On this day in 1918, the guns of the First World War finally fell silent on the Western Front, as the armistice was signed.

It came into effect on the eleventh hour, of the eleventh day, of the eleventh month, ending years of bitter war between the two sides.

On this day, just as any, we are thankful for the sacrifice made of those who came before us, and we thank them for what they gave so that we might live in peace and liberty.

It is vital that we continue their legacy, and strive to ensure that we leave behind a better world than the one we were born into, just as they did.
