Oddly, Google (UK) doesn't have a logo for Remembrance Day, they could have at least made an effort by just sticking a poppy on the logo.

Well 2002 – 2006 they had a logo but it is a shame they didn't bother this time :(And they need to update their UK logo page

Where did you find it Avrohom?

Philipp, that's weird. Yesterday I could see the Veterans Day logo in AEF's comment but now I see the standard logo. It looks like this might have been replaced.

What happens when you empty your cache and reload?

Well, i didn't empty my cache, (cause i don't want to.. lol..)
But i've opened it on IE, and you're right Philipp. It's gone.

Weird.. :/

Dang – your right.

Really strange

Well... for some reason, it's gone now.
I can only see the the original Google logo on FF.. :/

You're still getting it Avrohom?

No. I clicked on the link and then I pressed CTRL F5 and it switched to regular Google logo. :(

Probably someone had a problem with it and they had to take it off for legal or sensitivity issues.

I asked Google about this and the said:

<<We had the Veteran's Day doodle running in the US on Google.com on Veteran's Day (11/11), which is why it is no longer on the homepage. The doodle will be updated by 1:00pm PT at http: //www.google.com/logos/veterans07.gif.>>

They also send a copy, included below:
