    America is the land of the free, because of the brave. Americans enjoy many freedoms because of the democracy our ancestors fought very hard to establish. Freedom summarizes what being an American is about, but it’s not what an American is. An American is someone who is brave enough to do something even though the punishment is severe, someone who sees opportunity and stops at nothing to achieve it, and someone who doesn’t take the easy way out. Bravery is part of the definition of an American.…

    We keep Lincoln’s promise for the veterans by, paying for their GI Bill, if they are fighting in Iraq, Vietnam or something, and something really bad happens to them, like them breaking/losing their arms or legs, or if they go into a coma or something, the government pays for that, because they care about our veterans too. Whenever the veterans get home, we can throw parties for them whenever they walk through the door, to make them feel like they are welcomed back, and that they are loved. We would probably invite the people that they cared/loved about the most. When my uncle got back from serving in the military, we threw a party for him and the people that were there were Me, My Grandma, Grandpa, Mom, Dad, Kaden(My Brother), Drake(My Brother), Cousin(Brady- His Son), Cousin(Djerrah), Cousin(Xevo), Cousin(Gavin- His Son), Cousin(Hannah- His Daughter), Cousin(Cousin), Enzzo(Cousin)…

    Across the nation our veteran’s benefits for serving our country are being diminished due to budget cuts, reforms, and for some their benefits are being taken away completely. When their benefits are cut or taken away it makes living hard, because they have to deal with the small amount of income they get, on top of any physical or mental medical problems they may have gotten from their service in the military. As an example: A currently living veteran was claimed deceased due to a clerical error His family (along with himself) was sent two checks to help with burial costs, Due to the mistake made the departments of Veterans Affairs and Defense his other benefits were terminated as well.

    Veterans Day is a national holiday dedicated to making sure military veterans get the proper respect they are due, it is also a day for all Americans to remember the sacrifices made by the members of our armed forces, past and present.

With the approval of this legislation (Public Law 380) on June 1, 1954, November 11 became a day to honor American veterans of all wars. The day started as a celebratory event…
