Veterans Day falls on the day that World War I ended 90 years ago. It is one of the only holidays officially recognized on the actual day, November 11th, rather than the nearest Monday. There are only ten verified living veterans of WWI, and only two of those are from the U.S. To the 40,722,128 veterans of all American wars since the revolution, today we take a minute to remember and thank you.
