Happy Veterans Day!
In observance of Veterans Day we wanted to take a moment to honor the brave men and women who serve our country!
Per History.com, Veterans Day originated as “Armistice Day” on Nov. 11, 1919, the first annive
rsary of the end of World War I. Congress passed a resolution in 1926 for an annual observance, and Nov. 11 became a national holiday beginning in 1938.
Unlike Memorial Day, Veterans Day pays tribute to all American veterans—living or dead—but especially gives thanks to living veterans who served their country honorably during war or peacetime.
We celebrate and honor America’s veterans for their patriotism, love of country and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good.
