World War I – known at the time as “The Great War” - officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was
signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven
months earlier when an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into
effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. For that reason, November 11, 1918, is generally regarded
as the end of “the war to end all wars.” In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11 as the first
commemoration of Armistice Day with the following words: "To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be
filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory,
both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy
with peace and justice in the councils of the nations…" The original concept for the celebration was for a day
observed with parades and public meetings and a brief suspension of business beginning at 11:00 a.m. The United States Congress
officially recognized the end of World War I when it passed a concurrent resolution on June 4, 1926, with these words: Whereas
the 11th of November 1918, marked the cessation of the most destructive, sanguinary, and far reaching war in human annals
and the resumption by the people of the United States of peaceful relations with other nations, which we hope may never again
be severed, and Whereas it is fitting that the recurring anniversary of this date should be
commemorated with thanksgiving and prayer and exercises designed to perpetuate peace through good will and mutual understanding
between nations; and
Whereas the legislatures of twenty-seven of our States have already
declared November 11 to be a legal holiday: Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring),
that the President of the United States is requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the officials to display the flag
of the United States on all Government buildings on November 11 and inviting the people of the United States to observe the
day in schools and churches, or other suitable places, with appropriate ceremonies of friendly relations with all other peoples.
An
Act (52 Stat. 351; 5 U. S. Code, Sec. 87a) approved May 13, 1938, made the 11th of November in each year a legal holiday—a
day to be dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be thereafter celebrated and known as "Armistice Day." Armistice
Day was primarily a day set aside to honor veterans of World War I, but in 1954, after World War II had required the greatest
mobilization of soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen in the Nation’s history; after American forces had fought aggression
in Korea, the 83rd Congress, at the urging of the veterans service organizations, amended the Act of 1938 by striking out
the word "Armistice" and inserting in its place the word "Veterans." With the approval of this legislation
(Public Law 380) on June 1, 1954, November 11th became a day to honor American veterans of all wars. Later that same year,
on October 8th, President Dwight D. Eisenhower issued the first "Veterans Day Proclamation" which stated: "In
order to insure proper and widespread observance of this anniversary, all veterans, all veterans' organizations, and the
entire citizenry will wish to join hands in the common purpose. Toward this end, I am designating the Administrator of Veterans'
Affairs as Chairman of a Veterans Day National Committee, which shall include such other persons as the Chairman may select,
and which will coordinate at the national level necessary planning for the observance. I am also requesting the heads of all
departments and agencies of the Executive branch of the Government to assist the National Committee in every way possible." President Eisenhower signing HR7786, changing Armistice
Day to Veterans Day. Alvin J. King, Wayne Richards, Arthur J. Connell, John T. Nation, Edward Rees, Richard
L. Trombla, Howard W. Watts On that same day, the President Eisenhower
sent a letter to the Honorable Harvey V. Higley ,Administrator of Veterans' Affairs (VA). designating him
as Chairman of the Veterans Day National Committee. In 1958, the White House advised VA's General Counsel that the 1954
designation of the VA Administrator as Chairman of the Veterans Day National Committee applied to all subsequent VA Administrators.
Since March 1989 when VA was elevated to a cabinet level department, the Secretary of Veterans Affairs has served as the committee's
chairman. The Uniform Holiday Bill (Public Law 90-363 (82 Stat. 250)) was signed on June 28, 1968, and was intended to ensure
three-day weekends for Federal employees by celebrating four national holidays on Mondays: Washington's Birthday, Memorial
Day, Veterans Day, and Columbus Day. It was thought that these extended weekends would encourage travel, recreational and
cultural activities and stimulate greater industrial and commercial production. Many states did not agree with this decision
and continued to celebrate the holidays on their original dates. The first Veterans Day under the new law was observed with
much confusion on October 25, 1971. It was quite apparent that the commemoration of this day was a matter of historic and
patriotic significance to a great number of our citizens, and so on September 20th, 1975, President Gerald R. Ford signed
Public Law 94-97 (89 Stat. 479), which returned the annual observance of Veterans Day to its original date of November 11,
beginning in 1978. This action supported the desires of the overwhelming majority of state legislatures, all major veterans
service organizations and the American people. Veterans Day continues to be observed on November 11, regardless of what day
of the week on which it falls. The restoration of the observance of Veterans Day to November 11 not only preserves the historical
significance of the date, but helps focus attention on the important purpose of Veterans Day: A celebration to honor America's
veterans for their patriotism, love of country, and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good.
