Veterans Day is celebrated on 11th of November every year since 1919. With the end of World War I, the Armistice of Germany came into effect.

It is from this name that the ‘Armistice Day’ word was coined. With US President Woodrow Wilson issuing a message to his fellow countrymen on the ending of WWI, 11 November 1919 was marked as the first Armistice Day.

The day was later renamed as the Veterans Day in the year 1954. It was done on the suggestion of Raymond Weeks, who is a World War II veteran.

With the replacement of the name of the day, the concept of National Veterans Award was also introduced. In the year 1954, Congressman Ed Rees of Kansas received the very first National Veterans Award as he was the driving force behind making the Veterans Day a federal holiday.
