Do you guys also call it Veterans Day in the UK?
North america calls it remembrance day.
Remembrance day for the UK and Canada (And everywhere else I think)
Veterans Day is an American thing
I thought we called it "Veterans Day". I also heard that it use to be called "Armistice Day" before Veterans Day.
Atleast in Canada it's Remembrance Day.
However US kids call it Veterans day
because they think vets are just people
and you don't REMEMBER them
I thought memorial days nickname was remembrance day. I'm not doing any research just basing off peoples messages.
Veterans Day is an official United States public holiday, observed annually on November 11, that honors military veterans, that is, persons who served in the United States Armed Forces.

Remembrance Day (sometimes known as Poppy Day) is a memorial day observed in Commonwealth of Nations member states since the end of the First World War to remember the members of their armed forces who have died in the line of duty. Following a tradition inaugurated by King George V in 1919,[1] the day is also marked by war remembrances in many non-Commonwealth countries. Remembrance Day is observed on 11 November in most countries to recall the end of hostilities of World War I on that date in 1918. Hostilities formally ended "at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month", in accordance with the armistice signed by representatives of Germany and the Entente between 5:12 and 5:20 that morning. ("At the 11th hour" refers to the passing of the 11th hour, or 11:00 am.) The First World War officially ended with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on 28 June 1919.[2]

Veterans are the best. My Dad got sent to Iraq when I was 6 and I've had the privledge to know a lot of his friends he served with. Mostly though, I'd like to dedicate my Veteran's Day to one of my lifelong friend's brothers who unfortunely was KIA in Afghanistan in 2011 (I believe). He was a Marine and a God fearing man and I'd give anything for him to be back with his family. May peace be given to all the fallen Veterans and may God bless the ones fortunate to be with us today.
