Jasper VFW Auxiliary Post 6362 hosted the annual Veterans Day Parade in Jasper on Saturday.
A great crowd came out to support and show the veterans how much we appreciate them.
Veterans Day is November 11.
Veterans Day (originally known as Armistice Day) is a federal holiday in the United States observed annually on November 11 to honor military veterans of the United States Armed Forces. It coincides with holidays in several countries, including Armistice Day and Remembrance Day, which also occur on the anniversary of the end of World War I. Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 when the Armistice with Germany went into effect. At the urging of major U.S. veteran organizations, Armistice Day was renamed Veterans Day in 1954.
