On the Eleventh Hour, On the Eleventh Day, of the Eleventh Month....1918.

The ending of WWI, is commemorated in Britain, Canada , and the Commonwealth as Remembrance Day.  Here in the USA, what used to be called Armistice Day has been known as Veterans Day since 1954.

Among the wreaths are those from the USA, France and South Korea.
