    become a person of value”. ~Albert Einstein.Veterans are not just men and women who went to war. Veterans are the cause, we live in a safe country they are the cause, we walk on the sidewalk laughing and enjoying what life brings us. But the question in my mind is we laugh, play, and learn, what about Veterans they don’t laugh, they cry they don’t play they fight they don’t learn they die. We are not grateful we don’t respect the lives we live in every day. But that's not the point, we don’t even remember the reason we laugh, play and learn, if I were to tell you the number of people who died for us to have a bright future those numbers won’t matter the thoughts will. When I think about Veterans day I think about people who came back from the war and live a happy life, but I was wrong after learning the truth. Veterans day was the day we respect what we lose but even more we respect what we gained. That is what Veterans day means to me.…

    “However hard the incidents of war may be, the soldier who is called upon to offer and give his life for his country is the noblest development of mankind”(MacArthur.Duty, Honor, Country). In America honor is often seen as a man or woman going out to serve for their country and risk their life in the process. No matter how hard war may seem a soldier who is given the chance to serve their country and takes that opportunity is a hero. “Around a thousand campfires, I have witnessed that enduring fortitude, that patriotic self-abnegation, and that invincible determination which have carved his statue in the hearts of his people”(MacArthur.Duty, Honor, Country). Throughout all that he’s seen, General MacArthur says that he’s viewed neverending courage, loyalty, and untouchable willpower, that has made its way into the hearts and minds of…

    The reason our veterans are important to our history is because they were the ones who fought for our freedom and independence from England. The Continental Army was created in 1775 and commanded by General George Washington. We won the War with Britain in 1781 allowing us the freedom to form the Confederate States. In 1789, the Constitution went into effect and made the first President (George Washington) the Commander-in-Chief of our military.…

    Do you know when our national anthem first came to be the official anthem of the United States of America? The anthem was written by Francis Scott Key and became the official American anthem on March 3, 1931. America's gift to my generation is freedom of expression. Freedom of expression means we have the right to express our opinions in many ways. Currently, the professional football players of our nation seem to be using their freedom of expression to, in my opinion, disgrace our country's anthem.…

    The book, To Kill a Mockingbird, represents freedom to me because it is banned in some schools. I was lucky enough to read it and I found it absurd that some schools would ban their students from learning it. I’d like to think that because it is banned somewhere else, and not where I am, is freedom. “Give me liberty, or give me death!”…

    The desire to defend one’s hearth, home and way of life have been a call to service across the generations. Men and women have given up the freedoms of a normal life to this call, while others have done so for different reasons altogether. In our country, many individuals serve our society: police, firefighters, doctors, diplomats, Peace Corps workers, etc. However, the ability to stand and say, “I served my country” is a badge of distinction unique to the military. The decision to volunteer to defend this country through action and deed is an opportunity that few desire or partake of. Those that answer the call often describe their service with profound satisfaction. My reason for serving my country comes from this sense of duty and personal satisfaction that I found as a member of the United States Army.…
