VETERANS DAY, What It Means to Veterans - Salute to Service

With Veterans Day being celebrated later this week, we at Inspiring How UC That wanted to share our love and appreciation for our service men and women, past and present. This video serves as the first in our newest series, "Salute to Service". In this video, we posed the question to two veterans "What does Veterans Day mean to you?". Answering this question are US Army veteran Ray Moritz and Army and Marine Corps veteran Corey Taylor. We want to give a special thank you to Youtuber Jason S for allowing us to utilize his drone footage of the American flag on the hill as the backdrop for our video. The original footage can be found on his Youtube channel at:

Information on Veterans Day from Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veterans_Day):

Veterans Day (originally known as Armistice Day) is a federal holiday in the United States observed annually on November 11, for honoring military veterans of the United States Armed Forces (who were discharged under conditions other than dishonorable). It coincides with other holidays including Armistice Day and Remembrance Day which are celebrated in other countries that mark 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.

Veterans Day is distinct from Memorial Day, a U.S. public holiday in May. Veterans Day celebrates the service of all U.S. military veterans, while Memorial Day honors those who had died while in military service. Another military holiday that also occurs in May, Armed Forces Day, honors those currently serving in the U.S. military. Additionally, Women Veterans Day is recognized by a growing number of U.S. states that specifically honor women who have served in the U.S. military.
