Veterans Day

Since 1926, the Federal Government has officially recognized the service and sacrifice of America’s Veterans. Now celebrated on November 11 every year, Veterans Day pays tribute to all those brave men and women who have served our country in the Armed Forces. Across the country there are parades and celebrations; and the day is marked with a solemn ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery.

In his Proclamation earlier this week, President Obama said “As a grateful Nation, we are humbled by the sacrifices rendered by our service members and their families out of the deepest sense of service and love of country. On Veterans Day, let us remember our solemn obligations to our veterans, and recommit to upholding the enduring principles that our country lives for, and that our fellow citizens have fought and died for.”

Thousands of Americans show their appreciation by volunteering their time and resources to service members. To find out more about Veterans’ Day or how you can get involved with various veterans’ projects, go to: www.VA.GOV/OPA/VETSDAY
