Sgt. Carlos Meda, 36th Infantry Division Band vocalist, tuba and guitar player, sings the national anthem for the University of Texas men’s basketball opening night at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin in honor of Veterans Day on Nov. 10, 2017. Veterans Day began to show respect for past, present and fallen service members after World War One when the armistice was signed and for nearly 100 years civilians and military members alike have participated in the tradition.
