Isn't it nice that Google has changed their homepage to show a nice American flag in honor of Veteran's Day? How quaint and evocative!

What is your point? They do it for almost every holiday or anniversary, major or otherwise.

I think because it wasn't an American holiday until 1956, prior to that we celebrated it with everyone else as Armistice Day. It's since been renamed Veterans Day to honor American veterans instead of celebrating a unified victory of World War I.
Google.ca shows the red poppy.
