Armed Forces Day

 

Today is Armed Forces Day. What does that mean?  There is much confusion about the three major holiday’s honoring our great military.

Armed Forces Day (Third Saturday in May): This is the day we celebrate the men and women currently serving in the military. Flags fly at full-staff this day.

Memorial Day (Last Monday of May): This day we honor those who had died serving in the military. Flags fly at half-staff this day until noon, then the flag should proudly fly at full-staff.

Veteran’s Day (November 11): This day we thank and honor those who have previously served in the military.  Flags fly at full-staff this day.

There are many ways to celebrate Armed Forces Day. Fly your American flag at your house. Attend a local parade. Send a care package to overseas military personnel.
