The First World War ended at the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month, giving rise to universal recognition of Armistice Day across Europe and the United States on November 11. It was not until 1947 in Birmingham, Alabama that Raymond Weeks, a World War II veteran, organized National Veterans Day to honor all veterans, not just those of World War I.
