11 Nov 1918: Henry Gunther becomes the last #American soldier, and possibly the last soldier in general, to be killed during World War I. His senseless killing occurred 1 minute before the Armistice was to take effect at 11:00 am, even though it was agreed to at 5 am. #RIP #History #OTD #ad https://t.co/boAS6176VE

In Flanders Fields
by John McCrae
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
One of the most intense and profound moments in history. 11am on the 11th November 1918 when the guns fell silent. This should be shown in every school.
Happy Birthday, Carl.
You taught millions of us that being small is not the same as being unimportant. You taught us to be citizens of the cosmos, to be curious, to doubt loudly, and to be gentle with each other on this pale blue dot we call home.
We are still looking up. We are still asking. And in this cold, indifferent universe, your voice is one of the warmest things we return to, again and again. It reminds us to be kind, to hold on to our humanity, to keep the candle from guttering out in the dark, and to keep reaching until one day we stand among the stars.
Happy Birthday, and thank you for everything. 💙
