The Italian air force acrobatic (特技的) team, "Frecce Tricolori" (Tri-colour Arrows), leave trails of green, white and red smoke, the colours of the national flag, during a flypast over Rome November 9, 2008. The team was performing in observance of the 90th anniversary of the end of World War One. The First World War ended at 11 a.m on November 11, 1918 with an armistice (停战, 休战) signed in a railway carriage at Compiegne, France, which brought to a close a conflict in which more than 10 million people died.
