Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Free at last, free at last, Thank God Almighty, we are free at last.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Day It took many years for Congress to decide to celebrate the holiday. In the years leading up to the official decree many African-Americans celebrated the birthday themselves with a few states declaring King's birthday a state holiday. The bill was finally passed by both the House of Representatives and the Senate and was signed into law on November 2, 1983.

Veterans Day In 1921, an unknown World War I American soldier was buried in Arlington National Cemetery. These memorial services all took place on November 11, the anniversary of the end of World War I at 11:00 a.m., November 11, 1918 (the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month), which became known as Armistice Day.
