“America’s Gift to My Generation” Dear veteran, Thank you so much for everything you have done for America. In the words of Moshe Dayan he said “ Freedom is the oxygen of the soul.” I think that this quote can speak for almost everyone in America. And this is all because of you. And I know all the hard work you put into being there so thank you. I am glad you and all your friends in the military have helped us be free and a safe country.

You have gave many gifts to my generation and I am thankful for everything. You have given us freedom of speech,freedom of religion,and a peaceful country, And of course many more. You are a hero to a lot of people.You are a big hero to me and my school.

    In America, we have the right to vote, work, drive and many more activities we can partake in and to this we owe our veterans. It’s because of them that I can walk freely; they inspire me. Throughout their days of duty, they were motivated to fight for their values. They act as a martyr for the country and that’s a job most people are far from willing to take. Most people in America have nice lives and it's because of the women and men who serve for this nation.…

    I wanted to take a few minutes before my family departs Fairchild to thank you for all you have done and are doing for the families of our Airmen. I have seen unlimited acts of kindness and support to families across our base. I have heard of tough situations which have been handled with "kid gloves", resulting in positive outcomes for everyone.

I'm also aware that it's not always easy as you reach out to families who may not think they need anything, yet you provide a sounding board for them or are actually able to help with something that…
