Labor Day is a holiday in the United States that is dedicated to workers across the country. The intention of the holiday is to recognize the contributions that laborers make to the United States as a whole. Labor Day is dedicated to honoring and remembering the achievements of the US worker. It is a national celebration which recognizes the contributions that American workers have made to the prosperity of their nation.

Veterans Day Father and Son 225X285  72

official United States public holiday, we observe annually on November 11, that honors military veterans; that is, persons who served in the United States Armed Forces. This day is the anniversary of the signing of the armistice, which ended the World War I hostilities between the Allied nations and Germany in 1918. Our Veterans are thanked for their service to the United States on Veterans Day. Veterans are very special people who have spent part of their lives, from a few months to many years, serving our country in the military. This is very important because it means that without veterans, we would not have the freedoms we often so carelessly enjoy.

                                                                                

May God Bless All Of Our Veterans!
