America's Heroic Veterans
Across the generations, millions of American men and women have chosen to serve their fellow citizens by entering the US military. They have been willing to give their time, talents, and even their lives
[link removed] to protect America and her cherished freedoms. We now set aside a special day to honor these patriots.
World War I ended
[link removed] at 11AM on November 11, 1918. The following year (in 1919), President Woodrow Wilson declared Armistice Day
[link removed] to commemorate that peace. In 1938, it became a national holiday
[link removed] , and in 1954, it was renamed Veteran's Day
[link removed] .
Respecting our soldiers has been part of the American fabric of life long before this holiday was officially established. For example, President Abraham Lincoln said
[link removed] :
Honor to the Soldier and Sailor everywhere, who bravely bears his country's cause. Honor also to the citizen who cares for his brother in the field, and serves, as he best can, the same cause -- honor to him....who braves for the common good the storms of heaven and the storms of battle.
(As an interesting side note, this Veterans Day is the 100 year anniversary
[link removed] of the internment of the first unknown soldier at Arlington National Cemetery. Eventually, unknown soldiers from WWI, WWII, Korea, and Vietnam were buried at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
[link removed] .)
This Veteran's Day, be sure to thank a veteran for their service. Perhaps even take time out of your day to visit some veterans at a local nursing home. And, as always, remember to pray for the current members of the military and their families who are still sacrificing for our nation.
