EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic handwritten Naval Signal, dated 11 November 1918, marks the momentous announcement of the end of the First World War. The document, originating from the Navy Office at Southend, bears the signature of Wilfrid Jenkins, the Signal Officer of HMS Mersey. The signal reads, "1511 G.M.T. 11th November 1918. ALL STATIONS. CEASE FIRE. ARMISTICE SIGNED. 11 A.M. 11th NOVEMBER 1918." The First World War, also known as the Great War, lasted from 1914 to 1918, and this signal heralded the long-awaited peace. The intricately handwritten communication, a testament to the importance of effective wartime communication, was a crucial part of the official announcement of the Armistice. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1910s and the profound relief and jubilation that swept through the world as the news of the Armistice reached every corner. The significance of this Naval Signal lies not only in its historical value but also in its role as a symbol of hope and unity during a time of global turmoil. The meticulous handwriting and the official seal of the Navy Office at Southend add authenticity to this poignant piece of history, making it a fascinating addition to any collection of World War I memorabilia or historical documents.
