Veterans Day

Veterans Day is a national observance dedicated to honoring the courage, sacrifice, and service of military veterans who have defended their country in times of war and peace. Celebrated annually on November 11, this day recognizes former members of the armed forces across all branches — Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard. Our Veterans Day section offers historical context, personal stories, educational resources, event coverage, and ways communities and individuals can pay tribute. From parades and memorials to interviews with veterans, this space reflects the spirit of gratitude and remembrance.
