Latest News
We strive to keep the public up-to-date on what’s going on in our community. See below for the latest news from Sheldon Community Fire & Rescue.
Veterans Day is observed annually on November 11, commemorating the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918, when an armistice went into effect to end major hostilities in World War I.
In 1954, following World War II and the Korean War, Congress amended the law to rename it Veterans Day to honor American veterans of all wars.
Many Americans observe a moment of silence or pause at 11:00 a.m. (or 11:11 a.m. depending on local tradition and time zones) to remember those who have served and sacrificed.
It remains a fixed federal holiday celebrated on November 11 each year.
