• Yep. Armistice Day. And would you believe that there were still soldiers being killed on the morning of 11/11/1918? Talk about the stupidity of war. For what reason would anyone still be trying to kill somebody on the day the war was to end? Has everyone read "All Quiet on the Western Front" (Im Weste, Stille)? Anyone who hasn't? Why haven't you?

• Some individual Germans would not surrender for hours after the surrender.One particular machine gunner could only be stopped by an artillery barrage.Tom47,have you ever seen the film "All Quiet on the Western Front" Its the greatest anti war film ever made in my opinion.

• Yes I have, schonberg. I think they should make an modern version as well. It might get more attention.

• I have it on my shelf by me now.Starring Richard Thomas,Ernest Borgnine,Donald Pleasance and Ian Holm.You are right they should make a modern version of it.The part that sticks in my mind is the part when they visit their mate in hospital who has had his both legs amputated and he gives them his boots.And old Sgt Himmeldorf their old training instructor who comes up the front line to get an Iron Cross and nearly craps himself.
