Well, during World War I, on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1918, an armistice went into effect and all fighting between the allied nations and Germany ceased. This moment is generally regarded as the end of World War I, though it officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed June 28, 1919. Later in 1919, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed the first commemoration of Armistice Day on Nov. 11, a day on which the nation celebrated the end of The Great War with parades and public gatherings. On May 13, 1938, Congress passed legislation (52 Stat. 351; 5 U. S. Code, Sec. 87a) and Armistice Day became a legal federal holiday. Armistice Day Becomes Veterans Day As time went on and our nation became involved in World War II and the Korean War in the 1940s and 1950s, millions more veterans were honored on Armistice Day in addition to veterans from World War I. So, on June 1, 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed legislation changing the name of Armistice Day, a day whose origins were tied to World War I, to Veterans Day, in order to officially recognize veterans who served our country in all wars.
Veterans Day Moves to October On June 28, 1968, the Uniform Holiday Bill [Public Law 90-363 (82 Stat. 250)] was signed, and four national holidays Washington s birthday, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and Columbus Day were to be observed on Mondays. The intent of this bill was to ensure three-day weekends for federal employees, the idea being that the three-day weekends would encourage Americans to travel and partake in cultural and recreational activities. Many states did not agree with this move as Nov. 11 still held significance as the origin of Veterans Day. Nonetheless, in 1971, when the new law took effect, Veterans Day was celebrated on October 25, the fourth Monday in October. Most states followed suit with the new observance, but because states retained the right to designate their own holidays, Mississippi and South Dakota continued to celebrate Veterans Day on Nov. 11. As the years went by, other states moved Veterans Day back to Nov. 11 and finally, legislation was passed in 1975 that returned the federal observance of Veterans Day to its original date. The law took effect in 1978 and since then our nation has continued to celebrate Veterans Day on Nov. 11. Approved, LTJG Tony Cartland Commanding Officer
