Details:Remembrance Day A day to commemorate the sacrifices of members of the armed forces and of civilians in times of war, specifically since the First World War.

(Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice.) The day was specifically dedicated by King George V, on 7 November, 1919, to the observance of members of the armed forces who were killed during war; this was possibly done upon the suggestion of Edward George Honey to Wellesley Tudor Pole, who established two ceremonial periods of remembrance based on events in 1917.Remembrance Day services throughout the British Commonwealth, contains "Lest we forget" as its final line.
