the world war i armistice was agreed on at 5 am on 11 november 1918, to come into effect at 11 am. but intense warfare continued right until the last minute. many artillery units fired on german targets to avoid having to haul away their spare ammunition.
augustin trebuchon was the last frenchman to die when, at 10:45 am, he was shot on his way to tell fellow soldiers that hot soup would be served after the ceasefire. and henry gunther, an american, was the last soldier killed in action. he was killed 60 seconds before the armistice came into force while charging astonished german troops who were aware that the armistice was nearly upon them.
