office, on a battlefield, or at a switchboard, it takes a hero to be a veteran. Bravery and patriotism are characteristics of veterans. Veterans' Day was created to honor all people who have served, fought, and died for our country and our freedom. People who served in the military and gave their services, risked their lives, and lost their lives for us are all veterans: They deserve our thanks. When people think of veterans, a word that might come to their mind would be hero. Soldiers leave their

nationally and locally in supporting veterans. As discussed in our meeting, the Elks would very much like to be part of the coalition you are developing to better understand and address the needs of veterans. Each and every day, the Elks are interacting with veterans at VA hospitals and nursing homes, at their lodges through programs for veterans, by giving veterans the financial support and home furnishing to exit homelessness and much more. The work we do with veterans would bring significant value

Throughout US history, many wars and battles were fought that marked America. Fighting within those wars were brave soldiers, which to this day, we know as veterans. Veterans are important to our nation's history and future, as they have contributed to make America the great and prosperous nation that it is today. Veterans, along with other respected groups of people, deserve the nation's uttermost respect for all the contributions they have made to this country known as America. Not many people

learn more about the student veteran experience in the higher education environment. Not only am I researching student veterans because of the call from President Obama to honor their service, I’m interested in the topic from the taxpayer perspective. In November 2015, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs reported that $12 billion was spent on education benefits for over one million military veterans in the fiscal year of 2014. However, graduation rates for student veterans still lag behind their civilian

Our Veterans,Our Heroes “A hero is a man that is afraid to run away” -English Proverb.” That is what our veterans are, heroes.They should be respected for the sacrifices and honored for the things they do. They love are country because they fight for our country.They are brave enough to fight because they love. Our heroes make sacrifices.Our veterans make sacrifices because they care about us and they want to protect us from danger, so we can be safe.We should thank them every time we see them

The first action to be taken to advocate for the hiring of veterans and the establishment of collaborative programs for the veteran community will be through the use of different social media tools. To raise awareness on the issues, the use of Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook is best suited for this objective. Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn are the most widely used forms of social media today, with Facebook still in the lead for the most used social media platform in the world (Hutt, 2017). These

It wasn’t just another beautiful day in paradise. It was a day of thanking and giving honor to all the men and woman who serve our country. Residents and veterans gathered for the 14th annual Veterans Day Ceremonies held on Monday at Legacy Park. “Today, as you can tell, is quite possibly the event on the Malibu social calendar.” said Beth Neal, president of Malibu Chamber of Commerce who opened the ceremonies. The event was hosted by Pepperdine University, The City of Malibu, Wells Fargo

It is really sad when you see veterans on the street getting treated badly because they have no money. When they came back home to no money, no family, no home, and no support. Sometimes they have little money to come back too and still are able to pull themselves together and make a living. True heroes are able to come back from a bad situation and continue to live life. Another reason veterans are America’s heroes is because they go out and fight for us and our freedom. I have four people

there is kindness. When kindness, of respected veterans. I also think of when/everyone has the same level of respect. Also when there is shelter for all the homeless or somewhere for them to go. This is what I believe America should be like and what it is to me. When veterans are respected they know that everyone are about them. I also think of them being able to have more respect than we do because they risked their lives just for us. Plus, veterans should have equal rights. But most importantly
