World War I ends

At 5:00 am on this day in 1918, the Allied powers and Germany signed an armistice document in the railway carriage of Ferdinand Foch, the commander of the Allied armies, and six hours later World War I came to an end.

Here Endeth The Lesson !


It's being willing. I found out early that most men, regardless of cause or need, aren't willing. They blink an eye or draw a breath before they pull the trigger. I won't. ~ J.B. Books

    Every General that fought and killed his troops till the last second should have been hanged.

    Many sent their men to death charges for their personal glory in the last hours minutes and seconds till cease fire.

    "Apocalypse WW1" on the History channel is a great requiem of their insanity.
