Eleventh Hour

[Pharaoh RutinTutin 1,586]

The name and focus of the observations have varied by location and era.

The common thread is that ninety nine years ago today, at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of 1918, the guns went silent in Europe.

Respectful silence, heartfelt thanks, devout prayers, and patriotic celebrations all have their place on this day.

I had, "For it is the doom of men that they forget" going through my head instead. Yours is more appropriate.
