Today is Veterans day

Is your flag flying???

Veterans Day has other names.  You may have first heard it called Armistice day or Remembrance Day.

But regardless of the name, it is an important day.

First proclaimed a Holiday on November 11, 1919, it seems to be one of the few holidays that is still observed on its originally intended day.

Most other Memorial days (Various birthdays of Presidents, etc. ) have been moved to include a weekend or whatever.

But Veterans day is still observed on November 11.

Some of you working folks will get the day off.  Others will not.

And being on Thursday this week, you are not likely to be going on a trip or having a cookout or whatever.

But, regardless of what you do or don’t do, we do need to ‘remember’ this day.
