  Armed Forces Day

May 18, 2013

U.S. President Harry S. Truman led the effort to establish this holiday in 1949. Armed Forces Day replaced separate Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force Days and recognized the unification of the Armed Forces under one department -- the Department of Defense. On the third Saturday in May U.S. citizens are urged to thank military members for their patriotic service. 

Several other nations have an Armed Forces Day in honor of their military forces.

On This Day, 2013

On May 11, the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard will be co-sponsoring the annual Military/Amateur Radio Crossband Communications Test in celebration of the 63rd anniversary of Armed Forces Day. The annual event features traditional military-to-amateur crossband communications SSB voice and Morse code tests.  Details.
