How Do You Honor A Veteran And Celebrate Veterans Day?
Freedom. We know its meaning. We understand its importance in our lives. Yet there are times we forget how hard our Veterans had to fight for the very freedom we experience today. In November, 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11th as the first commemoration of Armistice Day, the first Veterans Day. Armistice Day was proclaimed to honor Veterans from World War I. It became an official holiday in 1926, with revisions to the holiday in 1938 and again in 1954, when the title of the day was changed from Armistice Day, honoring World War I Veterans to Veterans Day, when all Veterans were honored from all wars.
