Happy Armed Forces Day!

I would like to salute my FIL, my nephew, my beloved husband, and to all the members of the military, Happy Armed Forces Day!

In the United States, Armed Forces Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in May.

The day was created in 1949 to honor Americans serving in the five U.S. military branches – the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, and Coast Guard – following the consolidation of the military services in the Department of Defense. It was intended to replace the separate Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard Days, but the separate days are still observed, especially within the respective services.

Thank you for your service!
