    5. A group once campaigned to rename Armistice Day as "Mayflower Day." When “the war to end all wars” failed to do so, a small group of Ameircans led by Francis Carr Stifler of the American Bible Society proposed Armistice Day be replaced with Mayflower Day. That group argued the signing of the Mayflower Compact took place on Nov. 11, 1620 and was more appropriate to honor, since the Mayflower Compact was the cornerstone upon which the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights stood. The idea gained little traction.
