Veterans Day

History of Veterans Day

World War I – known at the time as “The Great War” - officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven months earlier when an armistice or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. For that reason, November 11, 1918, is generally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars.”

Also The NFL Salutes to the Veterans in November By Having The National Anthem Sung by Veterans and They Attend the games For free, and the coaches and players wear Camo to Represent the Military, as November 9^th 2014 The Dallas Cowboys and The Jacksonville Jaguars played In London as the international series ended The Dallas Cowboys & Jacksonville Jaguars Represented The English by having poppy’s imprinted on their jerseys.
