Honoring Heroes; Veterans Day Celebrations Across the U.S.

November 11 is recognized as Veterans Day in the United States, a federal holiday dedicated to honoring military veterans who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. This day sees various commemorative activities and ceremonies across the country. In New York City, events such as the Veterans Day parade in Manhattan’s Chinatown demonstrate the community’s respect and appreciation for veterans, with participants including Chinese-American veterans, community leaders, and local politicians.

President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris participated in a ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery, marking their first public appearance together since the election. They paid homage by laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and emphasized actions to support veterans, highlighting efforts to reduce veteran homelessness and expanding disability benefits.

Veterans Day also affects financial operations, with U.S. bond markets closed, though stock exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq remain open. The NYSE has upheld the tradition of a moment of silence for those who have served.

In Boston, a grand parade was held, leading to a ceremony where Mayor Michelle Wu signed legislation to increase property tax relief for veteran homeowners starting in fiscal year 2026. The ceremony underscored the city’s commitment to supporting veterans through economic means.

Various cultural and community events are organized to engage families and the public in honoring veterans. In Washington D.C., Family Day activities were hosted at the National Museum of the Marine Corps, featuring educational programs and entertainment tailored toward understanding the history and significance of Veterans Day and the Marine Corps birthday.

Additionally, efforts to support veterans are highlighted by financial grants, such as Congresswoman Grace Meng’s announcement of a $300,000 funding to an American Legion post in Forest Hills, New York, aimed at upgrading facilities to better serve veterans and the community.

The observance of Veterans Day is a reminder of the sacrifices made by military personnel and the ongoing need to support them in transitioning back into civilian life while honoring their contributions to national security and freedom.
