And remember when Veterans Day used to be Armistice Day?
And remember when people actually knew the reason for holidays such as Memorial Day?
I insist on calling it Armistice Day. And I call this holiday Washington's Birthday.
When days like June 6, November 11, and Dec 7 come around, I ask people if they know what day it is. They usually don’t. :-(
Yes, Armistice Day for folks like my grandfather who fought in those trenches of Meusse - Argonne and St Mihel (sorry about the spelling. )
