Veterans Day Salute


In a Proclamation issued in 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower called “upon all of our citizens to observe....November 11th....as Veterans Day.”

He went on to ask that America “solemnly remember the sacrifices of all those who fought so valiantly, on the seas, in the air, and on foreign shores, to preserve our heritage of freedom, and let us reconsecrate ourselves to the task of promoting an enduring peace so that their efforts shall not have been in vain.”
