Veterans Day is celebrated on what date?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Veterans Day is celebrated in the month of November on the 11th day.

November 11, or what has come to be known as Veterans Day, was originally designated as a US legal holiday to honor Armistice Day - the end of World War I, which officially took place on November 11, 1918. In a Congressional bill passed in 1938, November 11 was "dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be hereafter celebrated and known as Armistice Day." As such, this new legal holiday honored World War I veterans. In 1954, the name was changed to Veterans Day, honoring all who served honorably in the armed forces.

It is observed as Armistice Day in New Zealand, France, Belgium, and Serbia, and as Remembrance Day (also Poppy Day) in countries of the British Commonwealth.

Yes Veteran's day is always on November 11th. The resaon for that is because world war 1 ended at November 11th at the 11th hour. The 11-11-11 seems very symbolic so the United States decide to use that day.

How did Veterans Day come to be?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Veterans Day came to be when WW1 ended, the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, in 1918. At first Veterans Day was called Armstice Day. This day was reserved to acknowledge the courage and the patriotism of the United States who have fought for our country. It wasn't until May 13, 1938 that the law was adopted to make Armstice Day a federal and national holiday for November 11th of each year. Then in June 6 of 1954 Congress changed the named Armstice Day to Veterans Day to honor all of mthe United States.

Why should you be thankful for veterans?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

One of the reasons why it is important to be thankful for veterans is that these people are willing to put their lives on the line. They go to war zones and are willing to face danger and death. They have no intention to gain any fame. They do it so that the country people get peace and live with peace. Joining the military is a voluntary act and cant be forced on anyone. Also, these soldiers leave behind all wealth, family and friends and go to sacrifice their lives. Sometimes you never get to hear from them and they never get an opportunity to see their family. Yet they make this sacrifice. So it is important that the people of the country honor their veterans.

An armistice is a truce or a ceasefire allowing for peace talks or discussions. Armistice Day is the anniversary of the official end of World War I, November 11, 1918, when German high command capitulated to Allied forces at Compiègne, France.
