DESCRIPTION:

Armed Forces Day in Liberia is an annual observance held on February 11, dedicated to honoring the country's military forces and their contributions to national security and stability. This day holds significant importance in Liberia, reflecting historical and contemporary recognition of the military's role in developing and safeguarding its sovereignty.

Armed Forces Day in Liberia follows the enactment of the National Defense Law of 1956. This law restructured the Liberian military, which was established in 1908 as the Liberian Frontier Force. The holiday fosters a sense of unity and cooperation between the civilian population and the military while serving as a reminder of the military's fundamental duty to protect and serve the nation.

In addition to the formal ceremonies, community outreach programs and activities often aim to strengthen the relationship between the armed forces and the civilian population. These may include educational events, community service activities, and open days at military bases.

The observance of Armed Forces Day in Liberia serves as a reminder of the military's essential role in maintaining peace and security within the country.
