"Veteran’s Day"

Nov 11, 1919, was the first anniversary of the ending of World War I and President Wilson declared that day “Armistice Day”. In 1954 President Eisenhower changed the holiday name to “Veterans Day” to honor all veterans, not just to signify the end of a single war. Below are photos from our archives honoring some of the veterans from our communities. If you have any more information about these servicemen, please contact our office.
