Alot of people gat Veterans day and Mermorial day confused and some dont even know why Veterans day is held on November 11. Veterans Days was originally set on November 11 and called Armistice day to symbolize the end of world war one. But in 1954 the 83 congress took out Armistice and turned it to Veterans Day because of world war two and the Korean war and on June, 1, 1954 it was made to honnar Veterans. In 1971 they cahnged Veterans day to the four monday of October. But in 1978 it was put back to noveber 11.
I thought it was interseting that they changed the day so may times, It cool that the 11 of November has real meaning aswell. It a wonderful day we celabrate to honor all the men and women who served for our country.
