Now for a Special Announcement:
As we complete a week celebrating Veterans in our community, state, and nation, it's important to remember the real reason for Veterans Day and its history.
You might ask: What is Veterans Day?
Veterans Day is a special national holiday that is celebrated every year on November 11th. It is a day to honor and thank all the brave men and women—known as Veterans—who have served in the United States Armed Forces (the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, US Space Force ) during times of war and peace.
A Look Back: From Armistice Day to Veterans Day
The holiday has a rich history that dates back to the end of World War I—the "Great War."
-November 11, 1918: At the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, an armistice (a temporary stop to the fighting, or truce) was signed between the Allied nations and Germany, officially ending the war.
-Armistice Day: In 1919, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed November 11th as the first "Armistice Day" to commemorate the peace and honor those who served in World War I. Congress later made it an official federal holiday in 1938.
-A New Name for All Heroes: After World War II and the Korean War, which involved millions of American soldiers, the U.S. realized the holiday needed to honor all who had served the country in all wars. In 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower officially signed legislation that changed the name from "Armistice Day" to Veterans Day.
How Can You Show Your Gratitude?
When you see a veteran in your community, in your school, or even in your family, take a moment today to express your thanks. You can simply say, "Thank you for your service." It's a small gesture that means a lot!
