Today in Celack memorial sevices were held for all those who had died in wars past. In Calax square prime minister gave a speach on this

In our past we have been a war-like people portraying it as glorius. However as time went on we realised that war was hell on earth. An experience no man should ever face. Men had their friends die in their arms. Families waited at home for any news. Hoping that the news they got wasn't news of their loved one's demise. However many families recieved that news. Of those who had not died many were forever scarred by their experiences. May we never forget the sacrifice that these brave men and woman made. May their be a minute of silence

All throughtout the country everyone stopped and was silent for one minute. Then 5 AAM2's flew over the square in missing man formation.

We also know that on November 11th, 1919, in Versailles, France, the Treaty of Versailles was signed. That is why we celebrated Remembrance Day on November 11th, in memory of those who died in the Great War.
