World War II was one of the most widespread and deadliest battles fought. It left 291,557 United States soldiers dead and 670,846 soldiers wounded throughout a period of six years. It took a huge physiological toll on the soldiers, families, and even the people throughout the world. Many families had to live with disabled veterans due to many factors, a major one being depression and not being able to leave the house out of fear of another devastating event. Many families were robbed of someone very important to their life, while others were left feeling robbed because the person they once knew was not the same anymore. Many were depressed, sad, and scared. I thank every single soldier who fought to protect our country. In the future, I …show more content…
He was severely burned and lost his right hand at his wrist and his left arm at his shoulder. Robert says that facing his physical challenges was the easy part, but fighting the psychological challenges was the hardest part. He was forced to do his every day activities in a new way, but he was still living with the mental fact that he did not all have all of his body parts. Roberto and his family suffered greatly, but he said he never gave up because there was a purpose to his life and he continually had hope. I would love to be able to work with veterans, like Mr. Barrera, and help them to realize that even though they have gone through something very traumatic, there is still hope for their future. I want to make their experience with going through physical therapy an enjoyable one. It is going to be hard work to do the therapy itself, but I want them to know there is a purpose for their life that they need to fight for, just like Roberto said.
Personally, I know that I cannot change the minds of any veteran that has gone through such a traumatic and life changing experience, but in the future I do hope that I can, at the very least, be able to help veterans and give them hope and to let them
know that are not fighting their battle alone. I want to give them the best chance they can have to feel like themselves again
My hope for the future is that the people in
What are your thoughts regarding your ability to work with Veterans dealing with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Substance Use Disorders (SUDS), and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)?
Not many people would withstand having to go off to war knowing their life was on the line. There is much respect and gratitude inclined towards those who did and sacrificed everything they had. Our cordially veterans - the ones who fought and endured the bestial wars, the ones who knew they could fall at any moment, the ones who, despite the horror and fear
The men and women who helped shape the face of this country through their honor, legacy, and patriotism are those we call veterans. They are our dads, moms, uncles, aunts, brothers, sisters; they are our family. Yet, we constantly overlook their desire and passion for this country. The gratitude that they deserve is not shown towards them, as it should be. I thank all veterans for their
It is important to remember how much of daily life is affected by the work of veterans. Walking on streets, going to school, eating at restaurants, and hanging out with friends all depend on the service of veterans. They may not receive the proper amount of recognition from the younger generations, but their work is appreciated. In actuality, they gained vital information that can be shared with the future generations. They have gained respect and honor for their duty for our
I believe that World War II was a continuation of World War I because of some not resolved issues. Hitler violated the Treaty of Versailles by expanding the military and invading Poland. One of the events that led to the beginning of World War 1 was: Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism, and Nationalism; which stands for MAIN. Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia but they then joined up with Russia. After, Germany declared war on Russia which caused the war to expand. World War I ended in 1918 when Germany surrendered. It also had a great impact on European countries after it ended.
From the words of Jeff Miller “The willingness of America's Veterans to Sacrifice for our country has earned them our lasting gratitude.” The Sacrifices that you made for our country is not nameless. You Sacrificed your lives for our freedom on this earth. Our freedom occurred from your Sacrifice. All the men dead fought for this nation. Fought for freedom and the foundation of our country, and most couldn't enjoy it. The freedom of speech,religion,and our rights. Evan for the one who don't believe, god was watching and still is watching you as you rest, and watched you as you fought, still watches all fighting in war today and will forever.

We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude and the veterans deserve to have gratitude from others. The reason why I am grateful for our nation’s veterans is because without them we would not have peace and freedom in our country. Another reason why I am grateful for our nation’s veterans is because they have fought for us to have a good society instead of a corrupted one. After the veterans return from war they don’t change on how the treat people and not expect anything in return and that is why I am grateful. The nation’s veterans deserve to be celebrated and commemorated for their efforts and sacrifices.
The American veterans did a lot for us. If it wasn’t for them we wouldn't be able to do the things we want to do. So appreciate those who serve for us. Think of this as a gift. If you open a gift you are happy. Just like when the Veterans serve for us we are happy. Also when you open the gift you are thankful. Just like when you found out the Veterans served for us you were thankful.
World War II opened a new chapter in the lives of Americans. One of the greatest conversions was that of the American women. Women around the country were transformed from the average house wife into people of important and purpose.
Veterans day means a day of celebration and also sadness. It means remembrance, and for some, memories we wish to forget. Some have died in the fight while others live to seize the day. Some come back unscathed, but those who don’t, carry their scars with proud hearts. We honor them with this day and thank them for fighting for us when we could not.
Do you know the consequences? When a person goes to war, it creates a ripple. People become afraid and even mad for that person’s safety. Some people are really happy for that person. The person becomes a soldier. They go into war and see people die. They come out of the war with the memories plastered in their mind. I honor these veterans because of all they do for us. I honor them for carrying that stress from the war with them. I honor them for fighting for us. I respect these veterans. Doc Hastings once said,” We owe our World War II veterans - and all our veterans - a debt we can never fully
War is an evil to mankind that can bring devastation downfall for human existence. Those who withstand such catastrophic experience deserve all respects from all of us for all the bloodshed they have sacrificed. They are the real life heroes of men and women. My grandfather; Than Pham, and my uncle; Tuan Pham are veterans who survive through the Vietnam civil wars in 1960-1975. I feel really honor to have them as part of my family and be able to hear war stories from both of them. They take in account of story about obstacles which they face every day in combat. Both of my family members are very intelligent and lucky to be able to live through those hard times of violent, destruction, and havoc.
Even though we envisioned peace for our future, that didn’t mean it was and will always be that way. When violence broke out between us and other countries, our veterans made the ultimate sacrifice by fighting for and believing in America. For that, we should all be eternally grateful. Because of them, we have the freedom and the right to stand up for ourselves and our beliefs. They pushed and never gave up on our country. Moreover, troops are still fighting today for our freedom and our ability to be Americans on our soil or abroad.
The primary purpose of bases around the world is to have places where there are troops already waiting in case they are needed for quick response or they are in the countries we are allied with in case they need help. They do a bit of both this can also depend on what country they are in so they can do things suited to where they are stationed. Even with changes in technology and war, they are still needed considering our army still depends largely on manpower. I think we should keep them there in case they are ever needed especially at this point in time considering all the high tension surrounding Russia and WWIII.
