Veterans Day originated as "Armistice Day" on Nov. 11, 1919, the first anniversary of the end of World War I. Congress passed a resolution in 1926 for an annual observance, and Nov. 11 became a national holiday beginning in 1938.
HAPPY VETERANS Day! Thank you to all who serve, have served, and gave the ultimate sacrifice in service for this country.
