from The Prayer Book Society:

These services, from the Armistice in 1918 and from its fifth anniversary in 1923, are provided (unedited from the originals) in the hope that they will be of assistance to those planning contemporary commemorations of the Centenary of the Armistice. They are available for download in both PDF and editable (RTF) format.

In addition, the following prayers, suitable for use at Remembrancetide, are extracted from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer and would have been familiar to Church of England and other Anglican troops in both World Wars.
