Armed Forces Day
Saturday May 20th
"This is the day on which we have the welcome
opportunity to pay special tribute to the men and women of the Armed Forces ... to all the individuals
who are in the service of their country all over the world. Armed Forces
Day won't be a matter of parades and receptions for a good many of them.
They will all be in line of duty and some of them may give their lives in that duty."
-New
York Times, May 14, 1952 |

"On August 31, 1949, Secretary of Defense Louis Johnson announced the
creation of an Armed Forces Day to replace separate Army, Navy and Air Force
Days. The single-day celebration stemmed from the unification of the Armed
Forces under one department -- the Department of Defense."
- From the U.S.
