American veterans' organizations

The question being asked of me is “Why Veterans are Important to Our Nation’s History and Future?” Veterans are important to me because I live with two of them and I have a lot of them in my family. Without them, I wouldn’t know the reason why we have people sacrificing themselves for our country. My Grandpa, Roy Noble, always said that “War is not good but fighting for our country is,” I didn’t really understand that until I realized without them we wouldn’t have a free country. Britain would have taken over and we would have a queen instead of a president, or something like that. All veterans are the same, but there are many different types of Veterans. There are war veterans, they are known as Government Issue made to go to any other country…

There is a sacred tradition in the military, leave no one behind on the battlefield. But many veterans are beginning to believe their country has left them behind at home.

Often times those who are injured, physically, and mentally are forgotten about. Just like a grain in a pile of sand many of those that need help are lost in the countless numbers of others that have served. For example, “50% of those with PTSD do not seek treatment and out of the half that seek treatment, only half of them get "minimally adequate" treatment” (Veterans and PTSD). Our eagles take flight but as soon as they injure their wings we abandon them. We turn humans into killing machines…

This may describe what our soldiers go through while protecting our American freedoms. Our soldiers sign up for this, many without thinking twice. They are willing to pay the ultimate sacrifice if need be, the giving of their life to protect this wonderful country. For those who return home, they too often pay a high price. Many of them are diagnosed with PTSD. Approximately 1 in 15 Americans will develop symptoms of post- traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after a traumatic life experience.…

Everyday thousands of men and women put their life on the line for America’s freedom, and everyday Americans go about their lives oblivious to the sacrifice these servicemen and their families are making. Although these servicemen are celebrated and thanked on days such as Memorial day, Veterans day, July 4, 9/11, and any other time tragedy strikes, the truth is that they should be thanked and honored everyday. A few things Americans can do to show their appreciation are donate, volunteer, and…

Veteran care is an important, growing part of America’s aging population challenges and new statistics show the chance that senior veterans and those from the Baby Boomer generation to be homeless are significantly higher than non-veterans. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) recently published a study on the extent and nature of homelessness among America’s veterans as an adjunct to the 2009 Annual Homeless Assessment…

To conclude, expanding the MTAP to include licenses and technical certifications would bring about a host of benefits to not only service members, but the organizations they work for and the American economy as a whole. As stated, undergraduate degrees are no longer a job guarantee. Companies are looking for candidates with more focused expertise.18 Giving service members the financial means to earn these certificates would bring increased job knowledge to the military and increase their…

One of the most underrated, undervalued, and underappreciated groups in society today are veterans, and the matters of their contributions, capabilities, and reciprocity. At the last count, there were more or less fifty thousand homeless veterans in the United States today. A minor subsection of veterans, as a whole, is females. In general, the women of the military have a tendency to slide under the radar for much of their careers, and especially when it comes to things going awry, or…
