We have "Remembrance Day" in europe on the same day. On the 11th hour of the day, its tradition for a moment of silence. Otherwise apart from poppy reefs and other things like it, nothing special happens.

In some countries, Remembrance Day has become a tradition to remember the fallen in recent wars as well.
