Reply to comment by Crayshack in TIL: WW1 Armistice Day was Nov 11th, fighting was to cease at 11:00 AM. An American solider charged a German machine gun nest with 16 mins left, and died at 10:59 AM. The last soldier to die in WWI. by wats6831
The guy was demoted from sergeant to private over a letter he sent home about the terrible conditions of the war and was trying to regain his former rank or at least a promotion
