Armed Forces Day (1949)

pay tribute to men and women who serve in the United States’ Armed Forces
Today is Armed Forces Day! President Harry S. Truman led the effort to establish a single holiday for citizens to come together and thank our military members for their patriotic service in support of our country.
The single day celebration stemmed from the unification of the Armed Forces under the Department of Defense.
