Veterans Day ceremony at Alaska base canceled due to federal shutdown.
The annual Veterans Day ceremony at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Alaska has been canceled due to the ongoing federal government shutdown, which has halted funding for public events on military bases.
The event, typically held on November 11, was canceled because of a lapse in appropriations, preventing the Alaska National Guard and Department of Military & Veterans Affairs from hosting the gathering.
Officials, including Maj. Gen. Torrence Saxe, expressed regret but reaffirmed their commitment to honoring veterans.
The shutdown, now the longest in U.S. history, has disrupted numerous federal operations, including military and veteran services nationwide.
