It's sad that World War 1 was supposed to be the war to end all wars. But there had been multiple smaller wars in the years between the end of World War 1 and the start of World War 2. To make things worse, the armistice that ended World War 1 became null and void when World War 2 broke out. Therefore, the United States had the right to rename Armistice Day to Veteran's Day to remember the armed forces servicemen who perished during the two World Wars, and other conflicts after World War 2. Perhaps Great Britain and Commonwealth countries should rename Armistice Day to Veteran's Day, because almost all of World War One's generation have passed away, with the World War 2 generation also passing away.
Happy Veteran's Day to all armed forces veterans of the Free World.
