Sibbitt, Melanie From: Kennedy, Scott Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2024 7:16 PM To: Sibbitt, Melanie Subject: Veterans Day statement November 19, 2024 Why November 11th Matters: Preserving the Legacy of Veterans DaIj Veterans Day holds deep historical significance. The "eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month" marks the anniversary of the armistice that ended World War I in 1918. Many countries observe Armistice Day or Remembrance Day on the same date, commemorating not only the cessation of one of the deadliest conflicts in history but also the profound moment when nations collectively committed to peace and a better future. After World War 11 and the Korean War, there was a movement to recognize veterans of all wars, and the name was officially changed to honor all U.S. Military veterans in 1954. Many Americans are unaware that, in 1971, Veterans Day was moved to the fourth Monday in October as part of the Uniform Monday Holiday Act. However, this change met widespread opposition, as it severed the important historical connection to November 11. The backlash was so strong that Congress reinstated November 11 as Veterans Day in 1978. Preserving November 1 1th as Veterans Day reinforces a global recognition that veterans' sacrifices transcend time and geography. Commissioner Scott R.
