At the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month – we will remember them.

Today (Wednesday 11 November) is Armistice Day, at 11am we will be observing a two-minute silence to remember those members of our armed forces who fell and died in times of war.

The Armistice, an agreement to end the fighting of the First World War as a prelude to peace negotiations, began at 11am on 11 November 1918.
