1. Major hostilities of World War I were
formally ended at the 11th hour of the
11th day of the 11th month of 1918 when
the Armistice with Germany went into
effect. At the urging. of major US. veteran
organizations, Armistice Day was renamed
Veterans Day in 1954.
Veterans Day is distinct from Memorial
Day, a US. public holiday in May. Veterans
Day celebrates the service of all US. mili-
tary veterans, while Memorial Day hon-
ors those who had died while in military
service. Another military holiday that also
occurs in May, Armed Forces Day, honors
those currently serving in the US mili—
tary. Additionally, Women Veterans Day
is recognized by a growing number of US.
states that specifically honor women who
have served in the US. military.
