Right ok... when we spose to do this?
Brits did it today about 11 and a half hours ago. You want us to do it again for US troops? Hows about doing it every hour for all the different time zones?
Speaking of it...
Only four remain alive here. One passed away yesterday (November 10th) at the age of 111. He was the oldest.

Sorry, wasn't awake then.....wasn't aware when you guys did it. 
Yup, the 11th day of the 11th month when the First World War ended is commemorated by all those involved in the Great War and subsequent wars after that
