This day celebrates Veteran’s Day, honoring all military veterans who have served in the Armed Forces, a day to thank living veterans for their service and sacrifices, distinct from Memorial Day which honors those who died in service. It originated as Armistice Day in 1919, marking the end of World War I, and was renamed Veterans Day in 1954 to include all who served in any war or peacetime period.
