Myrtle Beach Named #1 Beach in U.S.

Myrtle Beach condo rentalsOut of the top 25 beaches in the United States, Myrtle Beach came in first place and received the Traveler’s Choice 2011 Award for Best Beaches by Trip Adviser. Equally not surprising is that world wide Myrtle Beach came in #6 for 2011 and 2012! For those who have been here, this is probably no surprise although it’s something we’re quite proud of.

Your experience here will be truly spectacular and after you’ve been here once you’ll return time and time again.

We have a major international airport in Myrtle Beach so it’s easy to get to your Myrtle Beach condo rentals from anywhere.

Thank a Veteran Today

Myrtle Beach condo rentalsWhat we know as Veterans Day, was formerly known as Armistice Day, and was originally set as a U.S. legal holiday to honor the end of World War I, which officially took place on November 11, 1918. In legislation that was passed in 1938, November 11 was “dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be hereafter celebrated and known as ‘Armistice Day.’” As such, this new legal holiday honored World War I veterans.

After having been through both World War II and the Korean War, the 83rd U.S. Congress — at the urging of the veterans service organizations — amended the Act of 1938 by striking out the word “Armistice” and inserting the word “Veterans” in 1954. With the approval of this legislation on June 1, 1954 the date of Nov. 11 became a day to honor American veterans of all wars.

In 1968, the Uniforms Holiday Bill ensured three-day weekends for federal employees by celebrating four national holidays on Mondays: Washington’s Birthday, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and Columbus Day. Under this bill, Veterans Day was moved to the last Monday of October. Many states did not agree with this decision and continued to celebrate the holiday on its original date. The first Veterans Day under the new law was observed with much confusion on Oct. 25, 1971.

Finally on September 20, 1975, President Gerald R. Ford signed a law that returned the annual observance of Veterans Day to its original date of Nov. 11, beginning in 1978. Since then, the Veterans Day holiday has been observed on Nov. 11. [Shared from military.com]
