Veterans Day, which evolved from Armistice Day, is observed annually on November 11 in the United States of America (USA). This year, Veterans Day in the US falls on a Friday. This special day honours all veterans of the US Armed forces — living or dead. In 1926, Congress passed a resolution making it an annual observance, and it became a national holiday in 1938. Later, after 16 years, then-President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the legislation changing the name to Veterans Day to honour all those who served their country during the war.

Veterans Day was started as Armistice Day in 1919 by US President Woodrow Wilson. It was established after the end of World War I as a tribute to the soldiers who lost their lives during the war. After World War II, veteran Raymond Weeks suggested that Armistice Day must celebrate all veterans —living and dead — instead of just the ones who lost their lives. Subsequently, Weeks celebrated the first Veterans Day on November 11, 1945, in Alabama.
