    Although veterans go to war to fight for the United States’ independence, they are not always treated with the respect and honor they deserve or given the help they need after returning home.

Unfortunately, over time, the way people in society have treated…

    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…

Whether a fighting soldier or a drumming boy. They are all to be remember on memorial day. Even if they were a simple military chef who died when their camp…
