Veteran's Essay

If somebody asks you when the right time to honor our military heroes and veterans is, what would your answer be? There could be so many different answers, but which one would you choose?

When somebody comes up and asks me when the right time to honor military heroes is, my answer is all of the time. Let’s just say that somebody who was in World War II sees you and you start to have a conversation with him or her, but then you both run out of ideas to talk about. So why not bring up the topic of thanking them for going to war and making our country a better place? If everyone honors our military heroes all of the time, they will know how much everybody appreciates it. Then it will make them feel like a better person and that they made a good choice to go into World War II.

Another possible situation when to honor a military hero would be when a person that was in the Vietnam War was visiting your house for a celebration. If that person is one of your grandparents or a close relative, you could tell them that you love them very much and that you are grateful that they put so much time into the war. On the other hand, if the person that you are talking to is somebody that you just met or an individual that may not be as close to you, as long as they know that you value all of their time that was put into the war, the one that you are talking to is most likely very thankful that you are honoring them.

See, there are many different possible ways to honor a veteran or a military hero. If you see a relative or somebody wearing an army or military suit, just remember to thank them for everything that they have done and that you appreciate it very much.
