WWI, the war to end all wars (if only mankind could have learned) ended 92 years ago today at 11:00. The above shows King George V laying a wreath on the newly erected Cenotaph at its dedication on Nov. 11, 1920, two years after hostilities were stilled. The Cenotaph is the site each year of remembrance and the traditional two minutes of silence to honor the fallen.
Love the new photo of you! Such a happy looking person.
