on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month is when the armistice or treaty was signed to end war or bring peace. and they used to call it armistice day before a man from emporia had the idea that there would be more wars to come because when it was called armistice day they only honored veterans from World War 1. now it is said to honor all veterans from all wars thanks to an emporia Kansas man named alvin king who knew that there would be more and that they should be all honored for their hard work and bravery.
