FOR EVERY MILE OF FREEDOM: Answer

Veterans Day was originally called Armistice Day, commemorating the end of fighting in World War I. The armistice took effect at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, 1918 — the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. In 1954, the holiday was renamed Veterans Day to honor American veterans of all wars.
