And on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, the guns fell silent. The war to end all wars, was over.

Has anyone outside the UK seen this display?? You rarely see something that takes a statistic and changes it into something that conveys the enormity of the dead in war. And this is only for the commonwealth losses.

Almost 900,000 of them.

Such a sad day for humanity.

So many lives lost and it seems nothing was learned from their sacrifice. Looking around the globe, a person must wonder if humans, as a species, are capable of anything other than warfare.
