On Veterans Day, we thank the men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces. We honor those who served in wartime and in peace, across every branch, including the National Guard and reserves. Every veteran has a different story, and each deserves to be heard.
Why We Observe Veterans Day on November 11
At 11 a.m. on November 11, 1918, an armistice brought the fighting in World War I to a halt. The date became known as Armistice Day. In 1954, Congress renamed it Veterans Day to honor American veterans across generations of service. U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
Make Time for a Thank-You
If there’s a veteran in your family, workplace, or neighborhood, consider reaching out today. A phone call or a handwritten note can mean a great deal. If they want to talk about their time in uniform, make time to listen.
From all of us at United Patriot Coin, thank you to America’s veterans for your service. We’re grateful, too, to the families who supported you through deployments, moves, and the long stretches apart.
