It is observed annually on November 11 and was originally called Armistice Day to commemorate the end of World War I, which occurred on November 11, 1918. The day was renamed Veterans Day in 1954 by an act of Congress after it was discovered that there were no longer any veterans alive from World War I who could be honored with an observance at Arlington National Cemetery outside Washington, D.C. Since then, Veterans Day has become a time for Americans to pay homage not only to their own personal veterans but also those who died in service or are still living today as well as those who are still fighting on the front lines.
