However, many people thought that the holiday had less meaning in October instead of on the anniversary of the ending of one of the most horrific wars the world has ever known,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], World War I. States began to change Veterans Day and put it back to November 11 again. In 1978,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Veterans Day was officially returned to November 11.
History of Veterans Day
The name Armistice Day was officially changed to Veterans Day in 1954. Some of the other names this holiday is known as are Victory Day,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], World War I Memorial Day,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Remembrance Day.
In 1971 the date on which Veterans Day was observed changed. The holiday was moved to the fourth Monday in October. This was done to allow people to have an additional three day holiday weekend. Some people were thrilled to have an extra long weekend particularly before the cold, harsh winter set it.
When is Veterans Day?
Previously known as Armistice Day, Veterans Day is a U.S. federal holiday. This special holiday is to honor all of the brave men and women who have previously served in the military.
Armistice Day was created to help people remember the horrors of war, the lives lost, and give hope that there would never be another world war again. By the 1950s, the holiday changed not to only honor the men who lost their lives in World War I, but to honor all who had served their country in the military.
Veterans Day is honored each year on November 11. This day commemorates the end of World War I when a truce was signed ending the war. Approximately 65 million men fought in this war worldwide. Sadly, about 10 million of those men died.
