Veteran

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 are joyous and much more calm! These pets help these problems in a huge way, allowing some veterans to even get over their disorders. Soldiers who serve in the military deploy and have countless traumatic encounters, including close friends dying constantly, which leave scars. They come back with all of these issues that often make them unable to stay in public for any length of time. For example, Robert Soliz says, “I would constantly be scanning for who was going to come stab me from behind”(Collin). Most veterans have these…

experience, he fails to realise that the battles still continue. These battles are not in Afghanistan, Iraq, or any other country, the battles are now here in the United States. Veterans with and without PTSD are and will continue to relive those battles in their minds for the rest of their lives. These Battles also have a possibility to spill out on to American street as more and more Veterans join extremist groups who regularly practice home grown terrorism. If Veterans are a threat to…

Another stereotype and misconception that Veterans are given is that they are they are only good for killing others as well as to being completely uneducated and do not have any other skill other than the one they they get from training and working for the military. The skills that they do receive from the military are completely useless when adapting to civilian life, and veterans are viewed by some as useless, unskilled, and unemployed. That they are a huge waste of taxpayer money if they were…

Most of us have had a family member in the military. Maybe it’s time to say an extra thank you to them for all they have done for us. All around, everybody deserves respect, and one small act of kindness spreads. It’s time to show everyone respect, especially our veterans. There’s many people that sacrificed their lives to help all of our daily lives better. I believe in an America where everybody respects our veterans. They fought and sacrificed their lives for us so we could have freedom. We…

Veterans are heroes in the eyes of many citizens of the United States. There are over twenty million veterans who have risked their lives to help give this nation a fear free life. They serve and protect the land for their children, spouses, parents, family, and neighbors. Yet they are not treated with the love and respect they truly deserve. Those who have served took a devastating loss when the, “House Appropriations Subcommittee marked up the 2016 Veterans Affairs funding bill, and slashed…

The question being asked of me is “Why Veterans are Important to Our Nation’s History and Future?” Veterans are important to me because I live with two of them and I have a lot of them in my family. Without them, I wouldn’t know the reason why we have people sacrificing themselves for our country. My Grandpa, Roy Noble, always said that “War is not good but fighting for our country is,” I didn’t really understand that until I realized without them we wouldn’t have a free country. Britain would…

Sir, I have initiated an internship program for newly discharged veterans in my Information Technology department. This would be a 6-month paid internship to work as an IT Systems Engineer, IT Systems Administrator, IT Systems Analyst within the information technology department in a civilian organization. This would be a transitional period for you allowing you to gain experiences in both the civilian and technology fields. In this effort, I have connected with the MSSA Program…

develop symptoms of post- traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after a traumatic life experience. (Velasquez-Manoff, July/Aug2015) Many veterans suffer from PTSD as a result of being involved in combat. What is really being done to help veterans who suffer with PTSD? What resources are available for family members of those who suffer from PTSD? What forms of treatment are available for PTSD? It seems society is made aware of it and the seriousness when our country is at war. As time passes and our…

By participating in the economic impact study, VLP hopes to effectively coalesce organizational output and performance into quantitative figures which can be clearly and articulately communicated to stakeholders,…

Honoring Our Veteran’s Our nation’s Veterans don’t get enough credit for what they have done. We don't realize the things they have done for our country, and the mental strengths they have. Our soldiers often get overlooked and in my opinion, deserve the most respect. The soldiers of the United States don't get enough credit for how scary their job is. They are the reason why today we have so many freedoms. Women in America can dress how they want. Citizens can vote on their…
