Remembrance Day - also known as Poppy Day, Armistice Day, or Veterans Day - is a holiday to commemorate

the sacrifices of members of the armed forces and of civilians in times of war, specifically since the First World War. It is observed on 11 November to recall the end of World War I on that date in 1918 (major hostilities of World War I were formally ended "at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month" of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice).

 

   

There have been numerous wars since WWI, so we take this time to remember every single individual who donned the uniform to protect the United States interests around the world.  God Bless our Troops!
