The History of Veterans Day began at the 11th Hour, on the 11th Day, of the 11th Month in 1918 with the signing of the Armistice ending the War to End All Wars. In 1938 it was declared a National Holiday. At the end of WWII the name was changed to Veterans Day to Honor those who served in WWII. Today we Honor All Veterans for their Service and those who currently Serve.
The Transylvania Cruisers Car Club invites all owners of Classic, Antique Cars, Trucks, Jeeps and Military Vehicles to participate in Honoring our Veterans. For more information call Bill 828 388 0671, Bruce 828 329 44971 or e mail [email protected].
