Veterans Day 2024: Veterans Day, a national holiday dedicated to honoring and thanking military veterans for their service to the United States, will be observed on Monday, November 11, 2024. The day marks an important occasion to reflect on the sacrifices made by those who have served in the armed forces.

Originally known as Armistice Day, the holiday was established to commemorate the end of World War I, which occurred at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918. It was later renamed Veterans Day in 1954 to honor all veterans, not just those who served in World War I.

Communities across the nation will host parades, memorial services, and other events to pay tribute to veterans, while many businesses and government offices will close to observe the holiday. It’s a day to express gratitude and reflect on the courage and dedication of those who have served to protect the freedoms enjoyed by all Americans
