America's Gift To My Generation Analysis
“America’s Gift to My Generation”

As Joe Barton once said, “Our flag honors those who have fought to protect it, and is a reminder of the sacrifice of our nation’s founders heros.” Our flag is not to be knelt upon, but to stand as one together, remembering how Veterans risked their lives everyday to go to war and give us freedom today. The least we can do is to thank you. You gave me a future, freedom of speech, and an education, and so many more things.
None of you deserve to be spat upon. You deserve to be honored.
Our Veterans fought for a reason, and it’s not so that we can dishonor our flag and country. It’s so that we can all proudly stand to our National Anthem as one unit. America’s gift to my generation is that we are independant.

    Veterans are men and women who have fought to protect our right to be free. These people put their lives on the line; risking the loss of bones, organs or even memory. These are extraordinary human beings if I say so myself. They deserve to be treated like royalty, yet more than 67% of the homeless population have served for our country for at least than 3 years. 47% of them served in the Vietnam War. This goes to show how “united” the United States really is.…

    One of the simplest ways is simply flying the American Flag proudly. Salute the flag as it goes by in a parade. The flag symbolizes freedom. We wouldn’t have freedom if it wasn’t for our veterans and armed forces that have fought over-seas to defend it. Thousands of veterans have fought and died for our flag and freedom. The flag is many veterans hope, pride, and their respect. I believe honoring the flag with respect and dignity means a ton to veterans and is one of the simplest and highest ways to respect a veteran.…

    I would like everybody to stop and think why after all these years, we have to stop or give someone the right not to say the Pledge of Allegiance in school.

    When Francis Scott Key wrote the star spangled banner almost two hundred years ago, he called America "the land of the free and the home of the brave." Those words still stand strong today as they did back then. Throughout our history American soldiers, marines, air force, and coastguards have answered to defend for our freedom and rights. That is why we as Americans should respect our veterans and thank them for what they have done for all of…

    For most Americans, we honor our veterans because they served us to be free and without them we wouldn't be free in our country. But why? Why do we honor our veterans years after they're done serving. We need to honor them because they fought and worked hard for friends, family, and country. To me, if we don't honor our veterans it would be heartbreaking to the veterans that made our country free. Also, since we are free we can have our own beliefs and not believe in something that someone else does, and have our own rights so we can do what we want to do. Thank you to all veterans that served for our country so we can be free.…

    Fellow citizens, let’s all remember that without those heroes who fought for our freedom of independence with outmost pride and dignity, we will never be a sovereign state. We will never get a glimpse of our country’s real beauty inside and out. Our country’s Independence isn’t just a simple word that can be easily defined. It is a legacy, being passed from generation to generation, worth more than gold. Priceless, indeed. Our independence pictures out our citizen’s ingenuity and our nation’s patriotism.…
