What is Veterans Day?
On November 11th, Veterans Day honors military veterans who served in the United States Armed Forces. On the 11th day of 1918, Germany's Armistice Day and Remembrance Day coincides with Armistice Day and Remembrance Day, which commemorates World War I. Initially, the United States observed Armistice Day as well. However, in 1954, it was renamed to the present Veterans Day.

However, Memorial Day is scheduled for honoring the men and women who died while serving. In addition, Armed Forces Day honors the men and women currently serving in the United States military.
