    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.…

    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 have taken over and we would have a queen instead of a president, or something like that.…

    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.…

    I am writing to thank you for your service to the United States and wish you a happy Veterans Day. The magnitude of your selflessness and courage is incomprehensible to me, and though these may be trite words, I sincerely mean what I say. I can think of no experience more inherently laudable and worthy of profound respect than serving in the armed forces. What compounds my gratitude of your service specifically is your modesty in discussing your service. Indeed, I believe you mentioned your service only once or twice in class.…

    Veterans would be abandoned to take care of themselves and wouldn’t receive the special treatment they deserve,if we did not live in America or have the freedom we do today. Not many people know what each thing on the flag means; The white signifies purity and innocence; Red, hardiness and valor; and Blue, the color of the Chief (the broad band above the stripes) signifies vigilance, perseverance and justice. The stars represent the fifty states and the thirteen stripes stand for the thirteen colonies.…

    If we did not win this war we wouldn’t have won our independence and we wouldn’t be the same country we are today.

    The veteran's service is an amazing program and every veteran who enters will be there until they die or are old enough to retire. Back in the Vietnam war some veterans were not thanked because they didn’t win the war. When people go up to a veteran and say thank you for your service they try holding back the tears because people didn’t appreciate them when they lost. Although the people also didn’t seem to care that they tried there hardest and lost about 530,000 men. This is why we need to keep lincoln's promise.…
