Reply to comment by [deleted] in TIL that Henry Gunther was the last soldier to die in World War I. The war ended at 11 AM and Gunther was killed at 10:59 AM while charging a German machine gun by IAmDavidGurney
The agreement to end the fighting was signed many hours earlier. This was to give time for the commanders at the front to be notified.
