Happy Veterans Day Texas! For those who may be unaware, Veterans Day is a patriotic day to honor all American veteran soldiers. It was originally created as "a legal holiday - a day to be dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be thereafter celebrated" in 1926 after World War I. In 1938, it was named Armistice Day. After World War II, it was renamed Veterans Day by President Eisenhower. It is a legal holiday in all states. It is generally marked by parades to honor veterans. It is a celebration to honor America's veterans for their patriotism, love of country, and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good. Be sure and tell any veterans you see or come in contact with "Thank you". We know Texas, as a region, has many veterans and we wish them all a big Texas-sized Thank-you! Don't forget to thank our active-duty soldiers as well. Texas veterans, please stand up so we can salute you!
