Veterans Day
November 11th

On Veterans Day in the United States, many people wear a red silk poppy to honor all living veterans.

In Europe, the day is known as Remembrance Day, a day to honor those who died in World War One and later conflicts. The First World War officially ended on November 11th, 1918 (the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.)

Poppies grew on the battlefields of France after World War One. Over the years, the poppy has become a lasting memorial to those who died during military conflicts. In the United States, the poppy has also become a symbol to honor living veterans.
