On April 13 we have an opportunity to break a trend that has been occurring around the country by joining in National Make Lunch Count Day. DYK that according to a recent study, the majority of U.S. workers eat lunch at their desk at least twice a week (73%), while one-third have lunch at their desk every day of the week. Break the cycle and get away from your desk. Join your co-workers at the Raymond G. Murphy VA Medical Center Canteen and enjoy a real lunch with stimulating conversation. #NationalMakeLunchCount

National Thomas Jefferson Day is observed annually on April 13. This day honors the birth of the third President of The United States, Thomas Jefferson, who was born April 13, 1743. Most known as the primary author of the Declaration of Independence, Jefferson was a stalwart of democracy. While not much an orator, his signature is found on almost every American written piece of correspondence, historical document, journal, and manuscript during the late 1700’s.

On this day in 1942, U.S. surrendered the Bataan Peninsula on the Philippine island of Luzon to Japan during WWII. Approximately 75,000 Filipino and American troops on Bataan were forced to make a 65-mile march to prison camps. Many of the marchers were subjected to harsh punishment along with the intense heat from the sun. Thousands perished in what became known as the Bataan Death March.

National Library Workers Day is observed annually on the Tuesday of National Library Week. This day is designated to honor all library staff and the valuable contributions that they make. Librarians do so much more than house the books we can borrow nearly any time of the day or night. Library workers are also the masters of history and research. They are the champions for our youth and foster creativity amongst all of us. Thank you, librarians for all you do!
