Veteran’s Day — which this year falls on Friday, November 11 — is a holiday established for our nation to recognize the service and sacrifice of the millions of American veterans who have served their country both here and abroad.
For many people, it’s just another day off work or school, or a chance for a three-day weekend with the family. Like veterans themselves, this holiday can be easy to take for granted. Which is why Wiley X,® Inc. — a veteran-owned company with a quarter century of tradition providing ballistic eye protection to U.S. soldiers in action around the world — is reminding Americans not to forget the true meaning behind this important day.
