Veterans Day is celebrated each year on November 11 because it is the anniversary of the signing of the armistice that ended World War I.

President Wilson proclaimed the first Armistice Day in 1919, and President Eisenhower changed the name to Veterans Day in 1954. Similar celebrations take place all across the world.

Today there are over 20 million veterans living in the United States. We honor all of those men and women for their patriotism, and their willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good of our country.

God bless our Veterans.

Some gave all, but all gave some.
