is memorial day the same as veterans day?

No. Memorial day memorializes veterans that died in our battles, veterans day is an appreciation day for all veterans past and present.

Veterans Day was originally called Armistice Day. It was established to celebrate the end of World War I, and was commemorated on November 11. Eventually, the name changed, and it was used to celebrate all veterans. And now it is celebrated on a Monday all the time.

Memorial Day was originally to commemorate those who died in the Civil War but was eventually expanded to commemorate all Americans who have died in wars. It was originally set for May 31, but it too has been moved to Mondays.

Is Christmas the same as Valentine's Day

Memorial day is to honor those who died in defense of our country. It's the solomn one.

Veteran's day (Nov 11th) thanks all who have served in the armed forces.

And Armed Forces day celebrates those currently serving.

Memorial Day is for honoring service members that died during their service but people use it as a celebration of the start of warm weather...

No, Memorial Day remembers the dead. Veterans Day celebrates the living veteran

No idea. All i know is my favorite candles are on sale

No...Memorial day focuses on the memory and honor of those who have passed on in service of the country, as well as any and all others we choose to remember. Veteran's day is to honor those who served and are serving both living and dead (but mainly living).

No.

Not in the U.S. Here Veterans Day is in November. But Autonomous explained it very well.
