VETERAN'S DAY

Veteran's day is celebrated on November 11th because thats when a peace treaty, or armistice was signed between the US and Germany during World War 1. the name was orignially Armistice Day but was later changed to Veterans Day to honor all soldiers, dead and alive. I think this holiday is great because it shows that we all, as a country, still appreciate the work and lives risked by signing up for the army and fighting for our country. It remembers the unknown soldiers who have passed and the known who are still fighting. Memorial Day and Veterans Day are great holidays still celebrated in honor of our troops and their honorable lives.
