Thankful for my soldiers
I am thankful for our soldiers giving us justice, thankful for them making us feel safe in our country, for giving us freedom of speech and more. This is what I appreciate from our soldiers.
First of all I am thankful to our soldiers for giving us justice, if we didn’t have justice we would be pushed around, and other countries could just barge in and take us and everything we own away and make us their slaves .If we didn’t have justice African Americans would still be slaves.
Our soldiers fight for fairness and equality.
Secondly I am thankful for making us feel safe in our country, because if we didn’t know that we have brave soldiers, we would all be scared that anybody or country could attack us, nuclear bombs would be a real threat. We would feel helpless. We know we have brave strong soldiers on our side so we can live our lives without any worries.
Lastly I am thankful to our soldiers for fighting for our freedom. Because if we didn’t have freedom, we couldn’t do the things we want to do like, believing in god, eating ice cream etc. We couldn’t sing our songs. Because of them we are not slaves.
Therefore I am so grateful for the soldiers who gave me justice, freedom and for making me feel safe in my country. These things are so important to me. I don’t know how to repay them. Those who died defending our country are true American heroes.
All I have to say to them is thank you for everything you have done for

    It saddens me to hear about the complete lack of value to the war effort put on by this small group of Americans. That key leaders given the authority to effect change sit idle while lives are lost. But then, as I stomach that blow, I focus on their true grit, their courage, their resolve, their valor, the bravery, their fearlessness, their dedication, the sheer tenacity of these Hero’s, and I am reminded of why our country is so great. God bless those that lost their lives in this battle, and the families that they left…

    Years later, thousands of men and still give up their lives to defend the privileges we hold as American citizens. Can you imagine a world without freedom of religion? Without freedom of education? Without freedom to speak our thoughts and to take action. 148 years ago slaves still worked day and night on farms and plantations. Only 45 years ago women were finally given equal rights. We were allowed to vote and have a say in government. For this, I can thank all of my ancestors who worked relentlessly so that…

    They gave their lives so we are able to live ours without having to fight as they did. They made it possible for our country to live with freedom and liberated from others. While many Americans often forget this, we should still live under the influence of their sacrifices and should respect their efforts each day. For example, many Americans refuse to recite the Pledge of Allegiance, something that is important to our nation and the people. I believe it is our duty as Americans to respect and honor the people who fought for our country, the people who left their lives behind to fight for our cause not just for their own.…

    We fight because we believe. Not that war is good, but that sometimes it is necessary. Our soldiers fight and die not for the glory of war, but for the prize of freedom and the ideologies that our country stands for. So great, were these ideologies, that men and women have bravely fought to defend them. OUR COUNTRY HAS FACED MANY TESTS OF COURAGE since its birth. Our answer to tests can be found in cemeteries from the islands of the Pacific to the coast of northern France. You can visit the hills in Arlington National Cemetery where markers record the names of more than 280,000 men and women. Each one was once or still is the most important person in someone's life. WITH EACH LOSS IN WAR, the world is changed forever for the family and friends left behind. IT IS UP TO US TO GIVE MEANING FOR THEIR SACRIFICE and de devoted to those principles for which these heroic citizens gave their lives. There is NO GREATER LOVE than to give your life for another. Our fallen comrades have demonstrated that love, and that my friends, is what Memorial Day is all about. FOR YOU TOMORROW, THEY SACRIFICED THEIR…

    American veterans served our country, sacrificed their lives for our freedom, and gave Americans all of the astonishing rights and freedom that we appreciate and enjoy today. Ronald Reagan once said, “Freedom is the right to question and change the established way of doing things.” Thanks to American veterans, we are able to have that right and many other rights that they have earned for us. Some people may say money, or shelter is the most important thing in the world. Honestly, it is the American veterans because we wouldn’t have all of the amazing things in the world if it wasn’t for them. American Veterans are the “apple of the eye” of America for their bravery and heart, for serving in the military and risking their lives for our freedom.…

    As an American, I am thankful that our country has a military that is willing to sacrifice their lives for us to be safe. America is the “Land of the free and the Home of the brave”. Our country and it’s American people have fought long hard wars to get to where we are in time now. Many have unfortunately lost their lives, but they were brave enough to go to other countries to fight for our freedom, rights and our country. The veterans and soldiers who are in other countries have lots of courage, and I want to say Thank You.…
