[edit] What about veterans day?
Veteran's Day should be here.--64.121.1.55 04:03, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
Except that Veteran's Day (Armistice Day, Remembrance Day, etc) falls on the 11th, not the 10th. --CalendarWatcher 04:33, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
Nope, it falls on the closet weekday. Well good job, now everyone thinks its tomorrow.--64.121.1.55 22:17, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
- If it falls on the nearest weekday (i.e. is a moveable event), it perhaps doesn't belong on a page about a specific month/day-combo at all? Rhialto 02:10, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

- Whether the US gives a weekday Bank Holiday for people when it falls on a weekend is immaterial: it's still celebrated on the 11th. --CalendarWatcher 13:14, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
