As we pause to reflect this Veterans Day, 11 November 2024, it is important to spend a few minutes on why we have this day.
President Wilson first referred to 11 November 1919 as Armistice Day in a message to the American people honoring the end of World War I the previous year. The tradition of celebrating that day continued for 20 years before it was made an official holiday in 1938.
After World War II, there was a call to expand Armistice Day to celebrate all veterans. The bill changing the name to Veterans Day was passed in 1954 and signed by President Eisenhower. Beyond the change in name, the day became a time to remember the service of all.
Veterans Day honors the service of all U.S. military veterans the fundamental relationship between being in the military and being of service. There was a time when it was common to say someone was βin the serviceβ because they are one and the same.
Being a Veteran, a virtue within us all which elevates the human spirit, compels us to reach beyond our meager selves to attach our spirit to something bigger than we are.
Each of us who have worn the uniform took an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. It meant we were willing to make personal sacrifices, to be dedicated to our duties, to be available to respond anytime and go anywhere and to lay down our lives, if necessary. Blood that was shed for our Freedom. #neverforgotten
This Veterans Day, let us all remember what serving means, and celebrate those who served so that we can all be free. ... See MoreSee Less

Words cannot adequately express the gratitude we have for the support we receive for W4WH. Mr. Ron Freeze served as a First Mate for his son, Captain Greg Freeze, from 2013-2018 and worked as our Treasurer from 2018-2023. Ron choose to volunteer selflessly and without expectation of being recognized or rewarded. The willingness to share both time and talent by volunteering with W4WH says a lot about the character of our volunteers and for that we thank you! ... See MoreSee Less
