Veterans Day Celebration

Veterans Day is a time to respect and celebrate the people in your life who have served in the military and have been discharged. It’s different from other holidays that focus on military members, like Memorial Day, Armed Services Day, and Women's Veterans Day, and international holidays like Armistice Day and Remembrance Day.

This is a day for Americans to thank the community members who have put in the time to defend the nation and the freedoms we enjoy. It’s a time to appreciate the sweat and blood of close to 20 million veterans who live and work in America today. It is important to remember history, too, to understand why other countries worldwide celebrate Armistice Day or Remembrance Day instead. Americans can remember and be proud of the role the country played in the Allied victory during World War I and know that once we celebrated that victory with the world. But there have been many conflicts since then, as well as many more veterans.
