There's a good story about the last soldier to be killed in the war - he charged a machine gun nest who was waving him off trying to avoid having to shoot him - but I don't have time to look it up- someone can get some free karma if they look it up I'm sure.

I think they announced the armistice, which signaled the end of the war, which was official a few days later. So it was a mistake https://www.history.com/news/false-armistice-report-world-war-i-early-celebration

Ending battles (war) arround whole world with hundreds of soldiers who lost contact with own armies probably takes longer than 4 days.
