3 Let’s learn about these holidays
What is Veterans Day? It is an official U.S. holiday observed every year on November 11. The day is to honor people who served in the United States Armed Forces (U.S. military). Anyone who serves in the military is called a veteran once their service is over. We celebrate on November 11th in remembrance of the end of WWI, which ended on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918.

7 Veterans Day vs. Memorial Day
Veterans Day often gets confused with Memorial Day. We celebrate Memorial Day in May to honor members of the military who died during their service, and we celebrate Veterans Day to honor all members of the military who served.

Remember… If you know a veteran or see one, thank them for their service!
