My grandfather was a motorcycle dispatch rider in WW1. He said got to Paris the day the war ended & got a pass to go out on the town. This was the seasefire not Armistice Day. Oct 27th1918, they went into town from the base a few miles north. The town was a party. His pass was only till midnight but none of the cab drivers were willing to give them rides because they wanted to party all night long. They all got reprimanded for it but had no choice. Here is his pass.
My Grandpa, Charles Hall from Riverside Iowa was a WWI motorcycle dispatch rider, part of the Coastal Artillery Corps.
