America’s veterans do not complain when fighting for us; they just do it. Veterans represent our country in war.
Veterans can be your neighbors and your friends, but do not be fooled, these people more than that. Veterans should get more respect than they do now.
Veterans also respect other fallen and their families. Some volunteer their time to about the wars and about the people they fought beside them that might not have made it their families to tell their stories. Veterans also volunteer their time to hospitals to help fight diseases; like, right now how veterans are helping fight ebola. Veterans are good examples American kids. We should stand up for veterans just as they stood up for us in war.
Veterans should be treated with much respect. They fight in many branches of military, such as the Coast Guard, the U.S. Army, National Guard, and the U.S. Marines. They work hard to protect us. They go through years of special training to go to war to protect our families and their families.
We should give a lot of respect to our American veterans. There is a lot of things say. The least I can say, the best thing a veteran (my uncle) has ever done for me is to be love wherever he has been stationed. Veterans go through a lot of stress and diseases, like I wish we could help more than we do now to help veterans get through this disease. My is also a veteran of the Vietnam War. I give him respect and love that is more than other people give him. We also have to think of the veterans wives that go through the stress when their husbands are out to war.
I wish I could say more, and I could. I could go on and on, but I have to stop.
