==Veterans Day==

Veterans Day changed to the fourth Monday in October, by a new legislation in 1988. But it turned out that November 11 was a date of historic significance to many American citizens. So the Congress restored the national holiday to its original date in 1978.  

The Uniform Holiday Bill of 1968  changed Veterans Day to the fourth Monday in October, which ensured three-day weekends for Federal employees by celebrating four national holidays on Mondays: Washington's Birthday, [[Memorial Day]], Veterans Day, and [[Columbus Day]]. However, November 11 was a date of historic significance to many American citizens, and many states did not agree with this decision.   Therefore in 1975 [[Congress]] voted to return the national holiday to its original date beginning in 1978.<ref>http://www1.va.gov/opa/vetsday/vetdayhistory.asp
