Is that the same as remembrance day we have here in England ?

Yes, it is the same. Remembrance Day and Veterans Day all originate from Armistace Day. In the US, they moved it some years ago to all on the seond Monday in November.

We have two days, Memorial Day and Veteran's Day. Also VE and VP days, lol...

Yup got to remember em luckily my fore fathers survived both world wars or I wouldn't be here some wasn't so lucky

Mine weren't as lucky. No one came back in my family... One killed during the fighting for Metz and the other Iwo Jima. One more at Okinawa

Sorry to ear that but the world is a better place for there sacrifice ! My grandad was at Dunkirk never talked about it is brother with monty his brother in law in Burma bayoneted survived my gran bombed on a train in Sheffield so I consider myself lucky it's a shame it came to war millions of innocent people died including Germans more JAW less WAR I say

One Grandpa was with the Big Red One in Tunisia and Sicily, wounded, plussed up 5ID in Normandy, and was finally wounded home after a serious MG 42 wound in Hedgerow country. The other was at Bataan. Both made it.

hey guys, i'm new to the forum but i wanted to say thanks for the support!!

My Great-father fought at Konigsberg, in Poland and also helped encircle Berlin. My great grandmothers brother was not so lucky. He joined the red army in the opening stages of Barborossa and was injured while defending the outskirts of Minsk.
He was sent to a hospital but Stukas came and most likely buried him alive. My greatgrandmother herself lived under occupation and many of her friends were deported to death camps until her town of Borisov was liberated.

Have nice Day
