Veterans Day 2022
Per the Veterans’ Administration, the first celebration using the term Veterans Day occurred two years after World War II. This was in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1947.
Raymond Weeks, a veteran of the war, organized “National Veterans Day,” to honor all veterans. Events included a parade and other festivities.
The event was held on November 11. At the time the day was designated Armistice Day.
