11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month

On this day in 1918, at 11 am a cease fire was signed that ended WW1. Veterans day (originally called Armistice day) was founded to celebrate all the service members who sacrificed in that terrible war.

Please take a minute to thank a veteran, their sacrifice is what allows us to live in a country where we can have the freedom to express our views in forums like this blog.

And a special thanks to the Marines of 2/2 CAAT Black.
