Apparently the last British soldier killed in action* in World War I. About an hour and a half before before the armistice.
5th Irish Lancers.
*others died later of wounds obviously
Private Henry Gunther American soldier killed at 10.59 on armistice day. last allied soldier killed in action. German soldiers were astounded to see the Americans advancing and were waving for them to stop. Reports say that practically as he fell the firing stopped.
The armistice had been signed at 5.00am. most generals were happy for their men to stand down for the last few hours. Unfortunately some were desperate for a last chance of glory.
The saddest thing is that this war didn't end all wars
