Today is Armistice Day in many countries commemorating the armistice which ended the First World War. It is celebrated as ‘Armistice Day ‘ in most francophone countries, ‘Remembrance Day’ in many of the British Commonwealth countries and ‘Veterans’ Day’ in the US and US dependencies.

Today is the birthday, in 1938, of Roger Lavern, keyboardist for The Tornados who had this 1962 hit.
