What does Veterans Day actually celebrate?

Veteran's Day celebrates every American veteran who served in USA armed forces from the Revolution to the present day. It was first called Armistice Day, celebrating the end of WWI on Nov. 11, 1918. Since WWII followed WWI (twenty years later), it did not make much sense to make a big deal about the end of WWI. WWII was far worse than WWI. So Armistice Day was changed to Veteran's Day to celebrate the living and dead veteran's of the USA armed forces. Memorial Day (at the end of May), remembers all the people who served in the Armed Forces, who died in the service of the USA. Memorial Day is for the dead. Veteran's Day is for the living and the dead.

What portion of mass doesn't change day by day?

The portion of mass that doesn't change day by day is primarily the mass of stable elements and compounds in a system, such as the mass of an object's structure or stable materials. While mass can fluctuate due to processes like evaporation, chemical reactions, or the addition/removal of substances, the intrinsic mass of stable components remains constant over short time frames. In a closed system, the total mass is conserved, meaning it doesn't change unless influenced by external factors.

What day does Veterans Day land on?

Veterans Day was originally called Armistice Day. The cease fire, or armistice, of World War I occurred at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, French time. The Allies and Germany had signed the armistice 6 hours earlier. It was first commemorated on November 11, 1919 to honor the veterans of WWI. (WWI officially ended on June 28, 1919 with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles.)

In 1954, after both World War II and the Korean War, legislation was enacted to change the word "Armistice" to "Veterans" to honor veterans of all wars in which the United States was involved.

The Uniform Monday Holiday Bill was enacted in 1968 to make three-day weekends for federal employees for certain holidays. It went into effect in 1971. Veterans Day was one of the holidays so affected and the date of its observance was moved from its traditional date of November 11 to the last Monday in October. But there was so much furor from the public and veterans groups about the change of dates that it was restored to November 11 by an Act signed in 1975 and taking effect in 1978.

Are banks in Texas open on Veterans Day?
