What is a Veteran? A Veteran is commonly known as a person who has served in the armed forces or someone who has fought in many battles for a long period of time. Veterans inspired me in numerous ways. Veterans are very courageous and brave people. Veterans, either men or women, sacrifice their lives for everyone and their country. Veterans are also very kind because they put everyone else before themselves. They protect our country and do their best no matter what. To numerous people, Veterans are also called heroes.

Veterans fight in battles and wars, sometimes for months and sometimes for years. No matter what veterans never give up on protecting our country and all who live in it. Veterans serve for many years. Veterans have the hardest job overall. They work long, difficult hours sacrificing their lives every day. They never know if they will be alive or even if their best friends, relatives, or loved ones will be with them the next day. Veterans put their own lives in danger to protect everyone else living in where they are fighting for. Veterans live a very hard and tiring life. They go to war and fight for what they believe in every day. Veterans take pride in their jobs along with everyone else taking pride in what they do for our country.

Veterans are very courageous and brave people and are recognized for their good work by all. They are very courageous because most people would never have the courage to sacrifice their lives for everyone else. They are also brave because they know once they go out there it could be their last day. Veterans are honored every day. Veterans are most recognized and honored for their great deeds on Veterans Day. Veterans Day is a holiday celebrated by everyone. Veterans Day honors all those, men or women, who served or is serving in the military. This holiday takes place on November 11th. Veterans deserve their own holiday even though one day is not enough for them to be shown respect. Most people, however do show respect towards them almost every day.

I believe Veterans should be shown more respect more often than they are now because many people do not even think about them after awhile.
