e f h HISTORY T O
VETERANS D AY I
n 1918 an armistice was declared between the Allied nations and Germany during World War I. The armistice began on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. We celebrate Veteran’s Day on the anniversary of the armistice that signaled the end of World War I. November 11th became a federal holiday in the United States in 1938. In the aftermath of World War II and the Korean War, the holiday became known as Veterans Day. Veterans Day is a holiday observed annually in the United states in honor of all those, living and dead, who served with the U.S. armed forces in wartime. Some states observe the holiday on November 11th and others on
the fourth Monday of October. Armistice Day, the forerunner of Veterans’ Day, was proclaimed in 1919 to commemorate the termination (at 11:00 a.m. on November 11, 1918) World War I. On the first anniversary of the truce, U.S. President Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation eulogizing fallen Allied soldiers and referring to November 11th as Armistice Day. It became a holiday in the United States, France, Great Britain, and Canada. The holiday acquired its present name and broadened significance in the United States in 1954. In Canada it is known as Remembrance Day, and in Great Britain, it is known as Remembrance Sunday. 19
