Saint Patrick’s Day, or the Feast of Saint Patrick(Irish: Lá Fhéile Pádraig, “the Day of the Festival ofPatrick”), is a cultural and religious celebration held on17 March, the traditional death date of Saint Patrick (c.AD 385–461), the foremost patron saint of Ireland.

Saint Patrick’s Day was made an official Christianfeast day in the early 17th century and is observed bythe Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion(especially the Church of Ireland), the EasternOrthodox Church, and the Lutheran Church. The daycommemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival ofChristianity in Ireland, and celebrates the heritage andculture of the Irish in general. Celebrations generallyinvolve public parades and festivals, and the wearing ofgreen attire or shamrocks.[6] Christians who belong toliturgical denominations also attend church servicesand historically the Lenten restrictions on eating anddrinking alcohol were lifted for the day, which hasencouraged and propagated the holiday’s tradition ofalcohol consumption.

Francis Scott Key composed thelyrics to “The Star-SpangledBanner” after witnessing themassive overnight Britishbombardment of Fort McHenry inMaryland during the War of 1812.Key, an American lawyer, watchedthe siege while under detainmenton a British ship and penned thefamous words after observing withawe that Fort McHenry’s flagsurvived the 1,800-bomb assault.

The Only 2 States That Don’tObserve Daylight

Saving TimeThe United States officially

adopted Daylight Saving Time (yes,not “Savings”) as part of theUniform Time Act of 1966. Beforethat, states could come up with theirown versions of the practice. In fact,Iowa once had 23 different pairs ofstart and end dates throughout thestate. This new law brought muchneeded order to the country’s clocks,but it didn’t require all states tocomply. And so, two stateseventually opted out: Hawaii andArizona.

ST. JOSEPHFirst appearing in the gospels of

Matthew and Luke, Saint Joseph wasthe earthly father of Jesus Christ andthe husband of the Virgin Mary. WhoWas Saint Joseph?

Venerated as a saint in manyChristian sects, Saint Joseph is abiblical figure who is believed to havebeen the corporeal father of JesusChrist. Joseph first appears in the Biblein the gospels of Matthew and Luke; inMatthew, Joseph’s lineage is traced backto King David. According to the Bible,Joseph was born circa 100 B.C.E. andlater wed the Virgin Mary, Jesus’smother. He died in Israel circa 1 A.D..

After marrying Mary, Joseph foundthat she was already pregnant, andbeing “a just man and unwilling to puther to shame” (Matt. 1:19), he decidedto divorce her quietly, knowing that ifhe did so publicly, she could be stonedto death.

An angel, however, came to Josephand told him that the child Marycarried was the son of God and wasconceived by the Holy Spirit, so Josephkept Mary as his wife.

After Jesus’s birth in Bethlehem, anangel came to Joseph again, this time towarn him and Mary about King Herodof Judaea and the violence he wouldbring down upon the child. Josephthen fled to Egypt with Mary and Jesus,and the angel appeared again, tellingJoseph that Herod had died andinstructing him to return to theHoly Land.

Avoiding Bethlehem and possibleactions by Herod’s successor, Joseph,Mary and Jesus settled in Nazareth, inGalilee. The Gospels describe Joseph asa “tekton,” which traditionally hasmeant “carpenter,” and it is assumedthat Joseph taught his craft to Jesus inNazareth. At this point, however,Joseph is never mentioned again byname in the Bible—although the storyof Jesus in the temple includes areference to “both his parents.”

National Vietnam War Veterans Day

On March 29, 2012, President Barack Obamaproclaimed March 29, 2012, as Vietnam Veterans Day. Theproclamation called “upon all Americans to observe thisday with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activitiesthat commemorate the 50 year anniversary of the VietnamWar. On March 28, 2017, President Trump signed theVietnam War Veterans Recognition Act of 2017. This actofficially recognizes March 29 as National Vietnam WarVeterans Day. The Act also includes the day among thosedays on which the US flag should especially be displayed.March 29 was chosen as National Vietnam War VeteransDay because on March 29, 1973, Military AssistanceCommand, Vietnam (MACV) was disbanded and the lastU.S. combat troops departed the Republic of Vietnam. Thelast unit was elements of MACV’s Infantry Security Force(Special Guard), actually special couriers.
