'Armistice Day"
Armistice Day. On November 11, 1918, an armistice or temporary cessation of hostilities ended World War I. The following year, Armistice Day was recognized. In 1938, Armistice Day was declared a legal holiday in America. Following WW II, the name was changed to Veterans Day.
It was first proclaimed Armistice Day by Woodrow Wilson in 1919. It became an official holiday in 1938. The name was changed to Veterans Day and the scope expanded in 1954.
1938
The Armistice of WWI was signed into effect on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of the Year of our Lord 1918, ending hostilities on the Western Front. The name was changed from "Armistice Day" to "Remembrance Day" after WWII.
There were always approximately 365 days in one year. This does not change.
Heavy fighting ceased on July 27th, 1953 and was followed by armistice. So the Korean war has not ended, and in its place is an armistice.
The days change every year. 365 days is 52 weeks and 1 day. So a date in any year, is always on a day of the week later in the following year. In a leap year there are 366 days, so that is 52 weeks and 2 days. So days after the 29th of February are on a day of the week 2 days later than they were in the previous year, continuing until the end of February in the following year.
On November 11 1918 the congress voted Armistice day a national holiday. ---------------------------By huss
