We will be attending the Ewing Veteran’s Day Ceremony at the Veterans Memorial Park, Municipal Complex Park, 2
Jake Garzio Dr, Ewing Township, NJ 08628. Veterans Day, formerly known as Armistice Day, was originally set as a
U.S. legal holiday to honor the end of World War I, which officially took place on November 11, 1918. In 1938, through
an act of Congress, November 11th was made a legal holiday. In 1954, at the urging of the veteran’s service
organizations, the 83rd U.S. Congress amended the Act of 1938 by striking out the word "Armistice" and inserting the
word "Veterans.” On June 1, 1954, November 11th became a day to honor American veterans of all wars.
