Veterans Day

Veterans Day is celebrated on November 11th, this day is celebrated to honor the people who lost their lives fighting for our country.  This includes honoring the members of the US Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force and the Coast Guard. In most states schools are closed for this national holiday. People celebrate this holiday by visiting hospitalized veterans, writing thank you letters to thank troops, performing chores for disabled veterans, and even organizing social events to honor veterans and fundraisers to raise money to buy better equipment and better living conditions. This is an important holiday to celebrate to remember the people who fought for not only our country but the people in it, I don’t do anything specific to celebrate this holiday but throughout the day I am thankful for what so many strangers willing did just to protect so many people they do not even know personally. This holiday is defiantly something that should continue to be celebrated because the people who did the amazing things they did for this country deserve to be remembered and celebrated forever and not forgotten or less appreciated by the holiday not being celebrated anymore, this holiday is also something that is important to a lot of people who lost family members in war deserve to have a day dedicated to their memory.
