Image
This Sunday, November 11th is Veteran's Day and The Fran Campbell Team would like to extend gratitude and honor to Veterans and Active Duty Military for their service to our country!  Here is some history and facts about Veteran's Day as well as some community events that will be honoring local Veterans this weekend. History of Veteran's Day (www.history.com) On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, was declared between the Allied nations and Germany in the First World War, then known as "the Great War." Commemorated as Armistice Day beginning the following year, November 11th became a legal federal holiday in the United States in 1938. In the aftermath of World War II and the Korean War, Armistice Day became Veterans Day, a holiday dedicated to American veterans of all wars. Facts about Veterans in the United States (Huffington Post November 7, 2012) 260,000 Veterans will be hom...
