The 11th of November became known as Armistice Day – a day to remember those who died in World War One.

After World War Two, Armistice Day was renamed Remembrance Day to commemorate those who were killed in both World Wars.

In 1954 the USA changed the name of the day in that country to Veterans Day.

We do not have a public holiday but do still observe a minutes silence at 11 am, radio stations and TV networks usually broadcast a commemorative item encompassing a period of silence and reflection in remembrance.
