Remembrance Day is the 101st anniversary of the armistice which ended the First World War. The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month is now a moment to commemorate service men and women - both those who lost their lives, and who survived. Many Australians pause for a minute's silence at 11am on November 11, which is the anniversary of the exact moment the First World War ended, after four years of fighting.
