Armed Forces Day
On Armed Forces Day the Veterans of Foreign Wars joins a grateful nation in paying tribute to the soldiers, Marines, sailors, airmen, guardians, and Coast
Guardsmen who right now are defending freedom both here at home and around the globe. According to the Department of Defense website, on Aug. 31, 1949, Secretary
of Defense Louis Johnson announced the creation of an Armed Forces Day to replace separate Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force Days. The single day celebration
stemmed from the unification of the Armed Forces under the Department of Defense.
