As Americans we are greedy generation. We complain about how we don't have the latest IPhone or when we complain about how we can't wait to move away from our parents when we turn 18. Then we also have veterans who desperately can't wait to come home, look their families in the eyes and tell them how much they love. We complain about how we have bad service while veterans who are waiting for a letter from their families or even to hear the sound of their voices. After realizing about how much our vets do for everyone I wondered what I could do for them or even their families?
I honestly think you can do for a vets family is to actually be there for them. There is probably not one day that goes by when the spouse doesn't think about their

Every time you see someone in any kind of military just say thanks. I mean they do so much for us and the county and a couple of words and a conversation is at least you can do for someone that is fighting for you. Take pride in your country there is nothing more disrespectful seeing someone stomp on our flag and it breaks my heart seeing people not care that the land they are walking on is all because of our veterans out there. I don't think a veteran could be anymore prouder then seeing kids at school reciting the Pledge Of Allegiance everyday. I know that all of our vets would want nothing more then seeing the American people take pride in how great our country really …show more content…
I am so honored to live in such a wonderful country where were proud to live in the United States Of America and if I could thank every veteran who has fought so hard so that I could be able to live a free life I would in a heartbeat. Our Veterans have sacrificed so much of their own time and put in so much effort that I cannot imagine the life of our veterans and I'm truly grateful for all that they do. Take pride in your country and be proud of the land you walk on because someone fought their lives so we could live the way we

    Do we really owe our veterans? In life you're going to face death whether you want to or not. You don’t know when it's going to come buts it's going to come there's no escaping. Some of us put ourselves in positions where it can come early for example the jobs we choose like veterans there fighting for us, we didn't make nor told them to they do it because it's something they want to do the only thing we can do is give our appreciation because they put themselves in that position to fight on the battlefield we shouldn't half to owe them anything.…

    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.…

    Now if we look to the present that the veterans gave us we wouldn’t be the country that we are today we may be still ruled by Britain or still have people in slavery, but people are still standing up for us even today . children today are looking up to those people as hero and sometimes they will want to fallow the footsteps of their family members hoping to be as brave as they are and fight for their country and people that they love because they know that they are helping everyone. Now people don’t realize but when veterans come home everything has changed for them and they miss many things. They could miss the day that their child is born or they may lose contact with old friends that they had.…

    Veterans play an important role in society today and the history of not only America as a whole, but the people who live in it. They have earned us our freedom and our rights, and even continue to help even after leaving the battlefield, whether by actively playing a role in their community or going on living the lives they earned for America. Having no veterans would signify no victorious battles or even fights to begin with. The veterans that America celebrates show that America stood and still stands for values and independence. They play a key role in history- who ever read a textbook that didn’t mention ferocious warriors or soldiers conquering forgotten cities?- and create our future at the same time.…

Some of these scars are easy to see, others are too deep, all are painful. They have come home to emptiness and desolation. Many come home to no home at all.…

    Soldiers that fight for our country sadly are not noticed by some of the people who live outside of the war. In The Gettysburg Address, a famous speech written by Abraham Lincoln, Lincoln writes a speech to dedicate a cemetery for those soldiers who had died in war. The real heroes of the war are those men who never made it out alive and they who did not make it out deserve the right to be remembered. Like Lincoln said, “We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that nation might live.” Many people might think that soldiers who come back are rich, but it does not work that way.…

We as people do not understand their experience and how traumatic it was for most of them. They do so much and we do so little. We the people can pay back our debt with just simple acts.…
