As published by the College of Piping<\/a> in the July 2017 edition:<\/p>\n

Pipers are being asked to take part in a unique and simple way to mark the\u00a0centenary of the end of the Great War. The College of Piping is assisting Bruno Peek LVO OBE OPR, founder and pageantmaster with \u2018Battle\u2019s O\u2019er \u2013 A Nation\u2019s Tribute\u2019.
\nThis will be a mass playing of the retreat march,\u00a0When the Battle\u2019s O\u2019er<\/em>\u00a0outside
\ncathedrals and other locations 06:00 on Sunday, November 11, 2018.<\/p>\n

Pipe Major William Robb, Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders.<\/p><\/div>\n

Many millions were either killed or returned home dreadfully wounded, along with remembering the families and sweethearts that lost husbands while having to stay at home to keep the \u2018home fires burning\u2019. At 06:00 on November 11, 1918, the Armistice of Compi\u00e8gne was signed between the Allies and Germany. It marked the end of the fighting on the Western Front and ultimately the end of the Great War, that terrible, gruelling four-year conflict that saw millions killed and wounded, including around 2,000 pipers. Countries all around the world were affected in what was one of the largest wars in history.<\/p>\n

We are asking you to play the Pipe Major William Robb composition,\u00a0When the Battle\u2019s O\u2019er<\/em>\u00a0at 06:00 local time at any location of your choice, whether it is a cenotaph or war memorial in your village, town or city \u2013 or even outside your house … any location you feel appropriate. The choice is yours. The most important part is everyone playing the tune together at 06:00 local time. This is the time when the Armistice was actually signed on November 11, 1918. It came into effect at 11.00.<\/p>\n
