Veterans Day
Veterans Day used to be called Armistice Day. It became a legal federal holiday in the United States in 1938. November 11, 1918 is generally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars”. Veterans Day is a holiday dedicated to American Veterans of all wars. Veterans Day continues to be observed on November 11, regardless of what day of the week on which it falls. It is a celebration to honor America’s Veterans for their patriotism, love of country, and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good.

Reflection: It amazes me how brave these human beings can be for protecting our country and our safety. They sacrifice a lot just being there, leaving their family behind for a long time. I wonder why some of them do it, but it needs to be done. I am very thankful for them.
