Veterans Day

  Veterans Day

Veterans day is a public holiday held on the anniversary of the end World War I to honor US Veterans and victims of all wars. This holiday started as a day to reflect upon the heroism of those who died in our country’s service and was originally called Armistice Day. Then in 1954 the holiday was was changed to Veterans Day in order to account for all veterans in all war. Veterans day is held on November 11. The purpose of Veterans Day is to honor the brave men and women, living or dead, that fought America’s battles, past and present. It is important to show honor and respect Veterans Day because they did so much for our country and we have to show them how much we appreciate them. Another thing is that this is the right thing to do at least give them our attention. Some ways to show to show honor and respect on Veterans Day is to show up, donate, fly a flag(correctly), write, and visit a VA hospital.

Reflection: My feelings toward Veterans Day is that I am glad that they do celebrate it because this is showing them our respect. Another thing is that we should celebrate even if we didn’t have no one in our family attend the army. I believe that Veterans wasn’t  just to honor those who serve but to show us how we also won this war. It would be nice if you guys attend a ceremony because this means that you do appreciate those who have served for us. Choose the right by honoring Veterans Day because they did sacrificed their life for our country. I am really glad to be a part of Veterans Day.
