Veterans Day falls on November 11 every year. In 2012, Veterans Day falls on a Sunday so it is observed on Monday, November 12.
November 11 is the anniversary of the signing of the armistice in 1918 which ended World War I and ceased hostilities between the Allied nations and Germany. November 11 was originally known as Armistice Day but was changed to Veterans Day in 1954. Redcort Software wants to honor and thank all military personnel who have served the United States or are currently serving.
