Happy Veterans Day 2024!

Greetings from BRCA 28605!

Happy Veterans Day!

On this very special day we honor those who have died in the country’s service and thank those who have served. Originally known as Armistice Day, it was proclaimed in 1919 by President Woodrow Wilson and became a legal federal holiday in 1938. There’s a reason we don’t deviate from the Nov. 11 date. 

On the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1918, a cease fire (or armistice) went into effect between the Allied nations and Germany, which signaled the unofficial end of World War I.

Thank you for your service and sacrifice.
