Veterans Day has been celebrated on Nov. 11 as a federal holiday in the U.S. since 1938. It is dedicated to American veterans of all wars.
The exact day and month commemorates that in the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918, an armistice — or temporary cessation of hostilities — was declared between the Allied nations and Germany in World War I.
