Veteran's Day means freedom, sacrifice, and honor for those who served in the military. It also means to give thanks to people who served. ... Many veterans sacrifice for our freedom. They fight for us. They leave their families to protect us and our freedoms.
Why is Veterans Day important? November 11th is a special day to honor all men and women who serve and have served our country so that we can enjoy our freedom every day. And behind each of those Veterans, there is also a family who sacrifices while that loved one serves their country.
Veterans Day is important because of the precious freedoms that we take for granted. Saying "Thank You" to a person in the military is a very small price for our glorious freedom. Because it's real people who protect and honor our freedom; spouses, dads, moms, brothers, sisters, neighbors, sons, daughters, friends, cousins, co-workers. People who mean a great deal to all of us. Brave, honorable, dedicated, patriotic, and altruistic men and women in the US military believe in something greater than themselves. They are willing to sacrifice and serve others. They know, that without their help, others may never be free. So it seems like a minimal task to take one day a year to recognize their valor and sacrifice. Salute!
