American veterans' organizations

Soldiers and war veterans recognize when they return home that they must protect the idea of war in the civilian’s mind; therefore, they can never be honest and expose the truth of their experiences. The truths of war, then remain decorated causing difficulty for civilians to perceive the war in the same context as soldiers. This idea also inhibits civilians from learning the lessons war offers, permitting civilians the opportunity to revert back to children because they are naïve and…

Veterans struggle everyday to get through menial tasks that, by most people, can be done with ease. The organization, Pets for Vets, should be funded because it helps veterans get over these everyday problems, especially Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) . Abused pets are often used and trained to assist veterans because it helps deal with their problems such as PTSD, loss of limbs, and other numerous psychological problems. This also gives abused pets a happy home. The veterans with pets…

1. Knowledge of policies and procedures of the blind/rehabilitation service. As a visually impaired Veteran who has received blind rehabilitation services in the past I was able to gain a unique perspective into what blind rehabilitation services are. I was able to witness first-hand instruction from certified rehabilitation therapist as a student and take the knowledge of the practice and procedures to graduate school at Western Michigan University. While in Graduate school I was able to…

discipline, and work ethic veterans receive from the military help them in the path to a successful college career. Having these characteristics set veterans ahead of their fellow non- veteran students who do not uphold these mannerisms. Yet we often read about veterans barely getting by at college, flushing away their G.I. bill, and failing at life. Although previous military affiliation proves to be beneficial, I have learned first hand of the many challenges veterans face while attending…

The Veterans are our heroes because they fight for us. I dont have the guts to go and war let alone have to possibly take someones life. My uncle went to war once. He was gone for about year. Now he is in a position where if they were to take men into war he is one of the last they would ask. Also he goes around and talks to high school students that are thinking about joining the army. If we did not have our veterans we would not be free. If we were free then there would be major changes in…

Veterans Day is one of the most well respected holidays in the U.S. Veterans day is a day to honor our troops. No country has ever achieved as much as the United States has. The U.S. would have never increased into the amounts of protection towards our freedom and justice it is today without the sacrifices our heroes have made. Our heroes risk their lives not only at war, but at home. While our veterans are out fighting for our freedom, they cannot be at home supporting and making great memories…

Like Martin Luther King Jr. once spoke, I have a dream. I have a dream that all of our fallen veterans will be remembered, honored, and celebrated. Unfortunately, there just isn’t enough days in the year to honor them all with their own day. Luckily for us though, we have memorial day, a day to honor every veteran who ever died at war. Whether family or friend, or someone you read a story about. Whether a fighting soldier or a drumming boy. They are all to be remember on memorial day. Even if…

Why I Appreciate America’s Veterans Veterans. Veterans are individuals who served in the military. They are brave men and women that came forward to protect our freedom when we needed to create a nation where freedom would reign. They would risk their lives, so that we could live free. They answered the call, willing to give it all. They defended our nation and held our flag high, so people would see the stars and stripes, as well as, the red, white, and blue waving in the distance. They took a…
