Veterans Day

On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, was declared between the Allied nations and Germany in the First World War, then known as “the Great War.” Commemorated as Armistice Day beginning the following year, November 11th became a legal federal holiday in the United States in 1938. In the aftermath of World War II and the Korean War, Armistice Day became Veterans Day, a holiday dedicated to American veterans of all wars. The day’s observation included parades and public gatherings, as well as a brief pause in business activities at 11 a.m. On November 11, 1921, an unidentified American soldier killed in the war was buried at Arlington National Cemetery in Washington D.C.; the U.S. Congress had declared the day a legal federal holiday in honor of all those who participated in the war.

   

Reflection: My feelings about Veterans Day is that we should all be thankful for all the veterans that fight for us, and that need to leave their families for a long time, and risk their lives just so they can fight for all of us.
