twelve millions
By 1945 almost 6 million Americans had served in the armed forces! :)
Americans celebrate veteran's to salute all who served in the armed forces. Americans also celebrate it because many people died while serving in the armed forces, so at the 11th hour of veteran's day there is a moment of silence. Americans also celebrate it because the day means a day of from work.
