Why should America’s Veterans be honored?

When I think of the word Veteran, I think of a hero. Courageous, life-savers, strong inside and out, may be better suited words to describe them to many; but when you add them all up, the outcome is a hero. Many people don’t realize how hard it was for them. They risked their homes; families; and more importantly—their lives. These men and women risked everything to come to where they are today, and those who survived, are truly lucky they were not killed. To be fighting another country in honor of your own is a remarkable task which is the least bit close to an easy job. In fact, it is probably the hardest job there is and ever was. Veterans represent people who were willing to step out of the shadows, and fight for who they are and what they believe in. To me, that is the greatest form of self confidence and superiority there is.
My grandfather was actually in a war; the Korean war to be exact. He gratefully fought for the United States and came back a stronger person. My grandfather fought for what he believed in and never backed out. He, is truly my hero, and will always be. It was a tough war, with many lost, and all remembered; but all together helping our country become stronger. If it wasn’t for the Veterans of the United States, our country would not be as stable. It is them that have made our country a better place to live with our own individual rights. They fought for the ones that could not, and supported the ones who could. Strong inside and out, these Veterans are truly amazing people.
Some were forced into war, some volunteered; but together they formed one strong group of individuals that protected us. America’s Veterans should be honored more than anyone else in the world in my perspective, even if they fought in a war of which no one may have remembered, they are still heroes. I hope one day every single person will realize the greatness within these veterans, because the amount of superiority they hold is without a doubt astonishing in every way possible.
