HAPPY VETERANS DAY
Triump is only for those who are not afraid and those who never quits,
With great pride and honor, we salute our heroes of past and presents the veterans,
Veterans Day is a federal holiday held in the United States annually on November 11, in honor of military veterans, who have served in the United States Armed Forces. Veterans' day coincides with other holidays including Armistice and Remembrance Day celebrated in other countries marking the end of World War I. The main protests of World War I officially ended at 11 o'clock on the 11th day of the month, 11 1918, when the ceasefire with Germany came into force. At the urging of the veteran U.S. organization majorly, the Armistice Day was renamed Veterans Day in 1954.
Veterans Day is not the same as Memorial Day, a U.S. public holiday. in May. Veterans Day celebrates the service of all U.S. military veterans, while Memorial Day honors those who have died in military service.
To commemorate veterans day, here are 8 ways to do this in honor of Veterans Day
The show
Attend a Veterans Day event in your area - not just for picnics with friends but a great turnout for veteran services. Roy Rogers said, "We can't be heroes, somebody has to sit by the road and clap as they go." Veterans Day is a great opportunity to do so.
Donation
There are many great organizations that offer all kinds of support, services and appreciation to our service members.
Fly the flag - correctly
Veterans Day is a great opportunity to fly a flag! Make sure you observe the appropriate rules for the display.
Ask someone about their service
It seems like we all know someone who has served and Veterans Day is a good time to ask them about their service. Some questions to get started are: What are you doing in the military? How long have you been serving? What are your favorite moments of all time in the service? Do others in your family serve? Why did you choose to go to the service branch you do? Do not ask if they have killed anyone and your veterans are veterinarians who do not want to share or state clearly what they are up to, support without interruption. Sometimes you don't have to say anything, just listen and pay attention.
Write it down
If you know a veteran, write a simple postcard or e-card to recognize them on Veterans Day. If you don't know a veteran, find the nearest military installation and ship there. The small act of recognizing one's service, even anonymously, is appreciated.
Don't compare Veterans Day with Memorial Day
Veterans Day is a time to thank those who serve or are with us. Memorial Day is to reflect and remember those who lost their lives in service to their country. Confuse the two or combine the two disadvantages of both.
Visit VA Hospital
Find out what policy at the nearest VA hospital to interact with patients or volunteers, and spend the day with a veteran. Many VA facilities will have Veterans Day events or special lunches that you can help prepare. Even if you've never interacted with a veteran, helping out at a facility is a way to give back.
Outdoors Activities with a Veteran
Invite a veteran or military family to explore the national park - admission is free for all visitors on Veterans Day. Outside helps improve physical and mental health, improves emotional well-being, and is a great way to celebrate today with a veteran.
Thank you veterans. Best wishes for veterans Days
HAPPY VETERANS DAY
