The reason Remembrance day is on the 11th of November is because it was the day World War 1 came to an end, on the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month.
On remembrance day I spend the morning at the Legion watching and listening to the ceremonies that go on.
My great Grandpa severed in the war, I never met him because he died a few months after returning by having a heart attack on the way to work.
