November 11th is celebrated globally as Armistice Day or Remembrance Day, with parades and public meetings along with a brief suspension of business beginning at 11:00am. In the aftermath of World War II, veteran Raymond Weeks leads a movement in the United States to expand the holiday to celebrate all veterans. Eight years later, Weeks is recognized as the ‘Father of Veterans Day’ when President Eisenhower signs the bill that renames Armistice Day to Veterans Day. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs states that the holiday is to be written without an apostrophe, because the day does not belong to the veterans, it is a day to honor all veterans.\n
