Veterans Day - Remembrance Day - Armistice Day - November 11, 2025
In the USA, Veterans Day -- originally called Armistice Day -- began as an occasion to reflect upon the heroism of those who died in our country's service. It falls on November 11, the anniversary of the signing of the armistice that ended World War I.
In 1954, the name of the holiday was changed from "Armistice Day" to "Veterans Day" in order to recognize veterans of all wars.
How to Honor Veterans on Veterans Day:
Veterans Day is a time to honor and thank those who have served in the military for their sacrifices and dedication. It's an important day to show appreciation.
You might consider writing a heartfelt letter or spending time with a veteran, listening to their stories and sharing their experiences. Volunteering at a local veterans' organization or donating to nonprofits that support veterans' health and well-being can also make a meaningful impact. Even simple acts like attending a Veterans Day ceremony or flying the American flag show respect and solidarity.
Your efforts can help veterans feel valued and supported, not just on this day, but throughout the year.
In the Commonwealth Countries - Remembrance Day -- originally known as Armistice Day was renamed Remembrance Day after World War Two to commemorate those who were killed in both World Wars.
