The Cause of World Peace

Veterans Day is all about peace.

Having been celebrated since 1918, Veterans Day is clearly a longstanding tradition in the US. But for what? While originally intended to commemorate the end of The Great War and those who died fighting it, the holiday has morphed over the years into a day in which servicemen and servicewomen are honored. A federal holiday, however, was created 70 years ago to be "dedicated to the cause of world peace." So we ask: what are you doing today for the cause of world peace? Make a new friend, tear down a stereotype, or advocate for those faced with violence.
