Mayor Gary Christenson, Health and Human Services, and Veterans Services Coordinator Emery Haskell cordially invite all residents, veterans, community organizations, and members of the public to attend the City of Malden’s Annual Veterans Day Ceremony on Wednesday, November 11, 2026 at 10:00 A.M.
📍 The ceremony will take place at Forest Dale Cemetery, at the Veterans Monuments located just inside the main gate on Forest Street. This annual event honors the brave men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces and recognizes their unwavering dedication, sacrifice, and commitment to protecting our nation.
🎖️ Veterans Day, originally known as Armistice Day, was established to commemorate the end of World War I. On November 11, 1918, the Armistice between the Allied nations and Germany was signed, marking the end of hostilities on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. In 1938, Congress made Armistice Day a legal holiday, and after World War II, it was renamed Veterans Day to honor American veterans of all wars. Veterans Day serves as a solemn reminder of the courage, service, and sacrifice of all who have served in the United States Armed Forces—and their families who continue to support them.
