We say “Thank you” to all of the military veterans for your service to our country.

Did You Know: Originally, Veterans Day was called “Armistice Day.” The holiday was created to commemorate the signing of the armistice with Germany that ended the first World War. The focus of Armistice Day was on the veterans of that war, though it was always meant to honor all veterans of foreign wars. It was to honor those who risked their lives on the battlefield to secure the freedoms of all Americans.  

During the holiday’s inception, Congress also made November 11th a day of prayer and thanksgiving. The legislators also expressed a desire that the U.S. flag be on display during this day and that special ceremonies be held. Finally, in 1938, Armistice Day became a permanent, official public holiday. Over time, with the passing away of the World War I generation, the focus on the 1918 Armistice was lost and the name of the holiday was changed. Today, Veterans Day is generally regarded as honoring all those who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces, rather than only those who actually fought.

“The willingness of America’s veterans to sacrifice for our country has earned them our lasting gratitude.” — Jeff Miller
