I see your 1st World War ended in 1919. Couldn't the Brits stop fighting after Armistice Day on 11/11/18?

Perhaps you should look in to it a little more?

A formal state of war between the two sides persisted for another seven months, until signing of the Treaty of Versailles with Germany on 28 June 1919.

Im puzzled why you think it was our war.?

Perhaps a little light reading of your countries history would help.

Neither did I. All my school years we were told (indoctrinated, subject to patriotic propaganda?) that the war ended on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918. Maybe all our memorials are engraved wrong. "1914-18".

Eric, I don't see anything in the wiki link indicating our war continued past this date. ?? This link is just what we were taught in school.

I am sorry if I was misunderstood. I did not have any hostile intent.

Have you checked them ALL - according to Wikipedia War Memorials use either of the dates.
