November 11 is Veterans Day which honors the men and women who are serving and who have served in the United States armed services. Veterans Day also serves as a day to remember all those who have given their lives for our country.
Veterans Day evolved from the day the Armistice was signed in 1918 which ended World War I. Great Britain and France also commemorate this day but it is called Armistice Day and Canada calls it Remembrance Day.
As a special thank you to our armed forces, many businesses across the U.S. are offering special discounts to our military and their families on Veterans Day. Please note that you must present your military identification to qualify for these discounts.
