Students should pull together the information gathered to understand what is being celebrated today. Veterans' Day is a holiday on which we honor those who have served in the armed forces. Originally, it started as Armistice Day on November 11th, 1918 when an armistice (or stop) of combat occurred between the Allied forces and Germany in the First World War. Years later, Armistice Day turned into Veterans' Day to commemorate the veterans of World War I. Later, the holiday was expanded to honor and celebrate all veterans. © 2014 Microsoft Corporation.
