Veterans Day is a significant national holiday in the United States, observed on Nov. 11 each year. The day serves as an opportunity to express gratitude and pay tribute to the brave men and women who have served in the U.S. armed forces. Communities across the nation unite to organize events and activities to honor veterans, such as parades, memorial ceremonies, and volunteer projects. Individuals can also show their support by spending time with veterans in hospitals or care homes, supporting veterans' charities, visiting museums and historical sites dedicated to military history, and displaying the American flag. Additionally, supporting businesses owned by veterans and writing letters or sending care packages are meaningful ways to show appreciation.
