📜 The Origin of Veterans Day
Veterans Day, originally known as Armistice Day, was first commemorated on November 11, 1919, marking the first anniversary of the end of World War I. In 1954, the U.S. Congress changed the name to Veterans Day to honor all veterans, not just those who served in World War I. This day serves as a reminder of the peace and freedom won and maintained by the brave men and women of our armed forces.

🙏 Our Commitment
As members of the 436th Civil Affairs Battalion, we pledge to uphold the legacy of our veterans and continue serving our nation with honor and integrity.

To all our veterans, we extend our deepest gratitude. Your service and sacrifice will forever be remembered and revered.
