Don’t thank a servicemember or veteran on Memorial Day.
But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t ever thank them! Veterans and servicemembers who are here and able to celebrate with us have their own days. Let’s talk about those.On the third Saturday of every May, Armed Forces Day gives Americans a dedicated time to thank our currently serving military members. Every airman, soldier, sailor, marine and coast guardsman does their part to keep our military running smoothly. If you want to thank them, Armed Forces Day is a perfect time to do it.
If you want to throw a quick nod to currently serving members on Veteran’s Day, too, that’s okay. Lots of businesses and restaurants use Veteran’s Day to provide discounts and small gifts of appreciation to active duty military members.Army vets celebrate their branch on June 14. The Coast Guard? August 4. The Air Force was born on September 18, and the Navy celebrates another year on October 13. The Marine Corps gets a year older every November 10.
