Not sure how many men are still alive from Armistice day, but it's become much more than a remembrance of the 11th hour 11th day 11th month.
After the second world war Armistice day was renamed Remembrance Day and is now set asside in respect of those fallen not only in WW1, but also in all conflicts since.

Tomorrow my eldest nephew (12) is parading with his sea cadet unit... and it's good to know that at least the younger members of MY family are still wanting to mark this occassion. I shall be going along also.
