About Veterans Day

Veterans Day is observed on November 11th in the United States, honoring all military veterans who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. The date coincides with Armistice Day, which marks the end of World War I hostilities in 1918. Unlike Memorial Day, which honors those who died in service, Veterans Day pays tribute to all veterans — living and deceased. Observances include ceremonies at war memorials, moments of silence at 11:00 AM, parades, and community events thanking veterans for their service.

How to prepare for Veterans Day

Reach out to veterans you know with a personal thank-you — a phone call, letter, or visit means more than a social media post. Many restaurants and businesses offer free meals or discounts to veterans on this day, so share those resources with veterans in your life. Attend a local ceremony or parade if one is held in your community. If you want to give back, volunteer with organizations that support veterans' housing, employment, or mental health services.
