Veterans day

Veteran's Day is an official United States holiday that honors people who served in the U.S Armed Forces also known as veterans. It is a federal holiday that is observed on November 11. Veteran's Day wasn't really called that, it was called Armistice Day to commemorate the truce between the Allies and Germany in World War 1 on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918. The first Armistice Day in the United States was celebrated on November 11th, 1919. All business was suspended for 2 minutes starting at 11 AM and parades and public gatherings helped commemorate the occasion. Later America began honoring its unknown soldiers on Armistice Day. A tradition that continues today.

Reflection: I Thank all the Veterans because  they are brave and also because they go fight for our country.
