Global View - Veteran’s Day

A: Do you have any plans for Veteran’s Day?

B: You mean Armistice Day.

A: What are you talking about? November 11th is Veteran’s Day. What planet are you from?

B: Well, as you know, on November 11th the allies signed a peace treaty with the Germans, also known as the Armistice Treaty. This marked the end of WWI and many countries around the world commemorate this date under names such as remembers day. In Poland it’s their independence day! There’s a lot going on around the world on this day.

B: Wow, I didn’t know! Probably because I flunked history in school.
