The President has also asked Americans to observe a moment of silence beginning at 8:46 A.M.(Eastern Daylight Time), the time the first plane struck the North Tower of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. He also strongly encourages Americans to use the Corporation for National and Community Service…

National Holidays
Each year on the Sunday following Labor Day, grandchildren across the country honor their grandparents.
There is a special bond that can only be shared between grandchildren and their grandparents. Grandparents are full of hug and kisses, family history, wisdom, patience, love and guidance. National Grandparents Day gives the grandchildren the opportunity to show love and appreciation to their grandparents.
National Grandparents Day has it’s very own song. The National Grandparents Day Council of Chula Vista, California announced in 2004 that “A Song for Grandma and Grandpa” by Johnny Prill would be the official song of the United States National Grandparents’ Day holiday.

POW/MIA Recognition Day
National Holidays
The day we honor former prisoners of wars and the memories of the tens of thousands of service members from all wars still listed as missing in action.
So, for our POWs and MIAs - for the ultimate sacrifice so many of them made in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam in the name of freedom - take a few minutes Friday to remember them.
Give the VFW post near you a call to see what they have planned.
National POW/MIA Recognition Day was established by an Act of Congress with the passage of Section 1082 of the 1998 Defense Authorization Act. This day is one of the six days that Federal Law requires the POW/MIA Flag be flown at all places designated by the U.S. Secretary of Defense.

National VFW Day
National Holidays
National VFW Day is celebrated annually on September 29. This day is devoted to the VFW organization and it’s members who have served our nation.
The VFW was established on September 29, 1899 by a group of veterans from the Spanish-American war. It has since grown to be the nation’s largest group of combat veterans. They continue “to honor the dead by helping the living.” The VFW promote patriotism, good will and youth scholarships. They also provide military assistance and community service programs, promote youth activities and volunteer many hours in their local communities.
How do you celebrate today? Honor the VFW members and veterans in your community. Let them know that you appreciate the sacrifices they have made for all of us. We truly are the land of the free because of the brave.
