Veteran's Day
aka Armistice Day, the day the "Great War", World War I, ended the active fighting. It resumed in 1939, and basically, the world has been at war in some form ever since.
Characters of the Day: Clovis, Reginald, and many others from the short stories of Saki (H. H. Munro) One of the best short story writers of all times, IMHO. He died November 14, 1916, while serving in the War, a great loss to literature. My favorite stories include "Sredni Vashtar", "The Story of St. Vespaluus", "The Un-Rest Cure", and "Quail Seed". According to Wikipedia, he was Queer, at a time when it was dangerous to be out, and so, completely closeted.
