State of Mind wanted to recognise Armistice Day 11 November today
At the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month. The Two Minute Silence is observed on Armistice Day, the day which marks the end of the First World War.
The Royal British Legion has always supported the traditional Remembrance Sunday services and the customary Two Minute Silence on that day. www.britishlegion.org.uk/
As the national custodian of Remembrance, the Legion also believes that when 11 November (Armistice Day) falls on days other than Sundays – on working days – Remembrance should be brought into the everyday life of the nation on those days as well.
In 2014 Armistice Day falls on Tuesday 11 November.
