World War I history was made in New Jersey on July 2, 1921 – but few people today know about it.
For the United States, the war did not end in the fields of France - but in Raritan, Somerset County, on what is now a Burger King and appliance store parking lot off of the Somerville Circle.
“It is kind of hard as traffic roars by us, to take a look at it,” says Raritan Historic and Cultural Committee former president James Fidacaro.
