Veterans Day is celebrated every year on November 11 in the United States in memory of heroes who have served in the military. It is a national holiday dedicated to honoring veterans, active-duty service members, and their families. Veterans Day has a special position in American society, representing respect and appreciation for those who have sacrificed for their country.
Veterans Day was originally known as “Armistice Day” to honor the end of World War I on November 11, 1918. Veterans Day was renamed in 1954 to honor all veterans of the United States Armed Forces. Unlike Memorial Day, which remembers those who died in service, Veterans Day pays tribute to all veterans, past and present, who have given their lives to protecting the country. It’s time to think of their courage and dedication.
How Americans Celebrate Veterans Day?
Veterans Day is honored with ceremonies, parades, and memorial services across the country. Cities hold parades, and national landmarks like the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery become points of focus for remembering. Schools, businesses, and communities occasionally host events to pay tribute to former soldiers, expressing gratitude via community service, discounts, or gatherings.
