Many Celebrations - Never Enough Ways to Say Thank YOU!
There are many different ways to honor Veterans. Today Iocal schools and government buildings were all closed in honor of those Vets in our area. NYC always has a huge parade and today in the Town of Newburgh there was a brief but wonderful celebration. Take the time to listen to this rendition of our National Anthem. It always make me take pause and think about what we have in this country.
The date of November 11th goes back in history to the armistice signed ending WWI. It took effect 11am on the eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1918. At that time the holiday became Armistice Day, a day of remembrance. Once it became clear after WWII and the Korean War that World War One was truly not the "war to end all wars" Congress changed the name from Armistice Day to Veterans Day and now our National holiday in the United States to honor ALL those that serve.
Thank You to all that have served our country, today and everyday of the year.
