Finlay #11 Remembering

Remembrance Day takes place on November the 11th. November is the time of the year when we wear a red poppy in memory of those who sacrificed their lives for us during wars. The eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month marks the signing of the armistice, on the eleventh of November, to signal the end of the world war one. At eleven am on 11th November 1918 the guns of the Western Front fell silent after more than four years of continuous warfare. It was named Remembrance Day in the terrible, fighting World War 2!
