The Central Coast Veterans Memorial Museum (CCVMM) is inviting all veterans and community members to a Veterans Day celebration from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 11.
Veteran’s Day is an American holiday that falls on Nov. 11 every year honoring the end of World War I on the “eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month" in 1918.
The special day commemorates war veterans who have served or are currently serving in the United States Armed Forces.
