FUN WITH MAPS – ISSUE 2022-201 DAILY FEATURE:

LOVELAND, OH (November 11, 2022) – In Issue 2022-201 of Steve Kovacs Fun with Maps, we honor and remember all who have served. Thank you Veterans for your service and sacrifice!

Veterans Day

Initially celebrating the end of the War to End All Wars (now known as World War I), Veterans Day is observed annually on November 11.

Great Britain and the members of the British Commonwealth celebrate this day as well, but they call it Remembrance Day.

Veterans Day has been a legal US holiday since 1938.  Veterans Day honors all honorably discharged veterans, and of course those who gave their life during active service.

Virtually all of us have relatives and friends who served in the military, so hopefully you appropriately honored them today.

This Turner Dated Events map details the events unfolding in 1945, as World War II was coming to an end.

Steve Kovacs and his wife Theresa reside in Loveland, Ohio where they raised their two children. He is a passionate collector of antique maps.
