Veterans Day Holiday

Normally (barring any hidden new laws), medical disabilities are not taxable income.

Veterans day was before Armistice day on November 11th.

A veteran could be anything depending what type of veteran like army,milatary,navy,coast guard and you should know the rest.

In the US it is a Federal Holiday and US Government buildings, including Post Offices are closed. Veteran's Day is always on the 11th of November. Banks, and typically credit unions, are also closed on this date.

November 11 was originally called Armistice Day, for it was on the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month that the guns fell silent ending WWI. The US changed the name years later to Veteran's Day to honor all veterans of all wars.

Veterans' Day was originally called Armistice Day, in celebration of the armistice that ended World War I. Woodrow Wilson was the US President then, but no one in particular started the holiday. Everybody involved celebrated.

The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month refers to Veteran's day. It was also when world war 1 ended. Veteran's day moment of silence is at the that very hour, saluting all the fallen veterans.

In the US, Armed Forces Day is not a Federal holiday. It is, however, observed by parades, military balls, air-shows, open houses on military bases. etc.

The eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1918 was when the armistice signed between the Allies of World War I and Germany at Compiègne, France, for the cessation of hostilities on the Western Front took effect.
Armistice Day (also known as Remembrance Day or Veterans Day) has since then been commemorated on November 11 each year by most of the world with the commemoration expanded to include the dead from all wars since that date.

The United States is the only one others have holidays on the same day to commemorate the lose of lives during WW1 but not other days.

Military cemeteries were under the jurisdiction of the US Army until 1973. After that year, the VA took control. Mr. Vinson retired from political service in 1965.

I'm pretty sure they have something like a 21 cannon salute on memorial day and veterans day in Washington DC.

The purpose of Veterans Day is to honor men and women who have been injured or served in the United States armed Servces.

we must remmeber and honor all the veterans that fought for our freedom.

Honor those whose accomplishments and/or self-sacrifice merit honor.

On November 11, 1918, the guns of World War I fell silent. The cease-fire was signed at the 11th hour on the 11th day or the 11th month of the year. The term 11th hour signifies being close to the end of something dangerous.

Other than US Veteran's Day, Canada celebrates November 11 as Remembrance Day, and I'm sure many other countries have celebrations, perhaps by other names too.

We celebrate veterans day because, the date 11 November originally celebrated the aniversery of the official end of world word I on that date in 1916.
