To be honest, Armistice Day is not officially marked in New Zealand either, even though our Boys were heavily involved on the Western Front.
I believe that our Government should be officially marking this event, but lets not get political....it leads to wars usually.
Our National Remembrance Day (ANZAC Day) is April 25th which marks landing of NZ and Australian troops at Gallipoli. A foolhardy undertaking masterminded by the British "planners".
