The American Legion Post 304 will be holding its annual Veterans Day Service this year at Mary Jane Davies Park at 11:00 a.m. on Nov. 11.
Veterans Day, formerly Armistice Day, is a Federal Holiday observed on Nov. 11. This holiday honors all veterans of the US Armed Forces.
Services are held at 11:00 a.m. to commemorate the end of formal hostilities in World War I at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 when the armistice with Germany went into effect.
It was renamed Veterans Day at the recommendation of the major US veteran organizations in 1954. Everyone is invited to the Memorial Service.
