Happy Veterans Day
The origin of Veterans Day has roots in the first world war. In 1918, on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day in the eleventh month, the world rejoiced and celebrated the end of four years of bitter war, with the signing of an armistice. The following year, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed November 11, 1919 as Armistice Day in the United States, to remember the sacrifices that men and women made during World War I in order to ensure a lasting peace.
