Commemorating November 11, 2025, as Veterans Day

AI Summary

This resolution commemorates Veterans Day on November 11, 2025, recognizing the historical significance of this date, which marks the armistice ending World War I in 1918. The resolution traces the evolution of the holiday, originally called Armistice Day and established in 1938, which was later renamed Veterans Day in 1954 to honor veterans from all wars. It highlights the international significance of the day, noting that other countries like Great Britain, France, Australia, and Canada also commemorate their veterans around this date. The resolution specifically acknowledges New York residents' service in numerous military conflicts, from the Revolutionary War to the Global War on Terrorism. By passing this resolution, the Legislative Body pauses to honor veterans, encourages New Yorkers to fly the American flag on Veterans Day, and will transmit copies of the resolution to several veterans' organizations in New York, including the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Military Order of the Purple Heart, Disabled American Veterans, and Vietnam Veterans of America State Council.
