Why Do War Veterans Care So Much?

Why do War Veterans Care so much?

At every event where our Nations Flag is, you will be able to see who stands and salutes or pledges their love and life for that flag.

At every parade you will see some men and women who stand a little straighter and look proud as our Nations Flag goes by.

In every home a Veteran will stand out of respect when the National Anthem is played.

At every Military funeral veterans hold back their tears externally , but inside they are drowning from them.

At the Wall watch for the ones that touch and feel the names and then bow their heads in prayer.

At the Wall look for the metals on the ground, left by living heros for those that are the real heros and couldn't come home.

Ask a War Veteran anything about life and they will brighten your day, ask them what war was like and they will walk away.

Ask a Veteran why he served and they will tell you because they were order to. Ask if they would do it again, and they would say if their country needed them , YES.

No matter what war they fought in, they have seen Hell, they have seen Death, they have seen men and women willing to give their life for theirs.

Veterans don't go to visit monuments for pleasure, they go to communicate with their fallen comrades and show respect for their ultimate sacrifice.

Veterans care so much because they have seen the blood left on the field of battle, they have seen the price of an arm and leg for victory, they have to live with these memories the rest of their lives.

America wake up there aren't that many Veterans left, any we don't want any new ones.

God Bless America
