5 Veterans Day Specials You Can Get In Redondo Beach

REDONDO BEACH, CA — As a Veterans Day 2022 tribute to U.S. vets and current military, restaurants in Redondo Beach are offering freebies and dining discount deals.

Veterans Day, a day to honor former military and active duty, is Friday, Nov. 11.

The holiday originated in 1919 as Armistice Day to mark the one-year anniversary of the end of World War I. The date of Nov. 11 is significant because fighting between Allied nations and Germany ceased on the 11th hour of the 11th day in the 11th month in 1918, according to the American Legion Auxiliary.

In 1954, U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower changed the name to Veterans Day. And not to be confused with Memorial Day, Veterans Day pays tribute to all veterans — those who have served and are currently serving, along with those who have passed.

Don't forget your military ID or proof of service to redeem the eatery offers.

And to all former and active duty servicemen and women, thank you from Patch!
