From Kathy Bohnert Monroe To the editor: At 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, 1918, an armistice to end fighting in World War I took effect. Many Allied nations declared this date a national holiday, and for 35 years it was known in the U.S. as Armistice Day. In 1954, the name was changed to Veterans Day to honor all men and women who served in the military.
