*Veterans Day In America Is Remembrance Day In The Anglosphere—Honoring Those Who Fought... And Those Who Didn't Come Back* ( [link removed] )

*James Fulford writes* : Veterans Day in America is on November 11 because that’s when WWI ended. ( [link removed] ) It used to be called ”Armistice Day” ( [link removed] ) until Eisenhower changed it in 1954 ( [link removed] ).

In a Memorial Day post some years ago, the late Kevin R. C. O’Brien, ( [link removed] ) a veteran himself,  explained that that day was to honor the dead, not to say ”Thank you for your service”:

*Memorial Day is not on occasion to celebrate those many of us who survive. At least, not in the USA. We’ve got a day for that, in the bitter month of November, for good and historical reasons. That’s the day for those who returned upright and animate. [ “Happy Memorial Day?,” ( [link removed] ) Weaponsman , May 30, 2016]*

It’s not like that in the rest of the Anglosphere.

November 11 is celebrated as Remembrance Day in Canada, England, Australia, and other Anglosphere countries. It’s more like Memorial Day in America, in that it’s dedicated to the honored dead, rather than living veterans.

Writing about Memorial Day, a few years ago, I wrote ( [link removed] ) that VDARE’s overseas Anglospheric readers celebrate Remembrance Day on November 11 (Armistice Day in the U.S.) in honor of a soul-destroying, seemingly pointless slaughter that destroyed the old order between 1914 and 1918.

But by 1914, the United States had already been memorializing  its own soul-destroying ( [link removed] ) , seemingly pointless slaughter for fifty years. ( [link removed] )

In both cases, the participants thought ( [link removed] ) they were achieving something, ( [link removed] ) but in the end, they hadn’t. World War I didn’t prevent ( [link removed] ) World War II, and the Civil War ended in (a) Reconstruction ( [link removed] ) and (b) the failure of Reconstruction. ( [link removed] )
