To all those who have served. Thank you for your service!!! Happy armed forces day!

Today is Armed Forces Day.

This holiday is recognized annually on the third Saturday in May. Established in 1949, Armed Forces Day is meant to be a celebration of all military branches (Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, National Guard, Navy and Space Force). It differs from Veterans Day in that it’s a day to honor those who are currently serving, and unlike Memorial Day the focus is on the living, not those lost. Each year, the White House releases an official proclamation of the day. In 2024, President Biden’s address read in part, “I call upon all Americans to display the flag of the United States at their homes and businesses on Armed Forces Day, and I urge citizens to learn more about military service by attending and participating in the local observances of the day.” (To read President Trump's proclamation, go to WhiteHouse.gov - it was not yet available as of the scheduling of this post.)

How are you recognizing and celebrating our Armed Forces today? Are you flying the American Flag, participating in a VFW Day of Service activity, co-hosting an event at your Post home, educating fellow citizens with a “Buddy”® Poppy display and distribution or visiting a military base with fellow Auxiliary members? Let us know! Send photos and details to [email protected] with the subject line Armed Forces Day.

We wish a happy Armed Services Day to all who serve! Thank you for your service and sacrifice.
