Heroes are people who are above average people who go out of their way to help other people like veterans, men and women who risked their lives so that we could be able to do the things we enjoy in life. Even veterans were around in Ancient Greece. Even Odysseus was a veteran he fought in the trojan war 3000 years ago, and in other times fighting to get back home to his family.

She was one of the girliest girls I knew since grade school, with her stylish culottes and pink garments of all different shades for all different occasions. She was the epitome of a mixture between pure innocence and quirk that boldly took her rightful place in the middle of my heart. Mary Anne wasn’t just all of that; she was also my affectionate girlfriend, my warm-hearted best friend who I could talk about anything with, from the most trivial things to the very meaning of our whole existence. At the time, all I could feel was the absolute joy that I got from spending my time with her. We had our entire happiness in the future planned out, a dream wedding and all, but maybe that was the reason why I wouldn’t have ever imagined that I would be feeling so lost and empty just a few years later, alone and missing a part of myself.…
It was a rainy morning in Seattle, and I wore my Army dress uniform. Stepping off the bus, I ran 100 yards to the entrance of the Airport. After I purchased my ticket and checked my bags, I headed to the bar. It was the time of the winter equinox, and I was headed home with my discharge in my duffle bag. I suppose I should have worn my civilian clothes, but I had been stateside six months, and the comradeship I experienced in Vietnam had yet to loosen its grip on me.…

In the war there are many things you risk.…

They go out everyday putting themselves in danger for us to have freedom. However veterans choose to do this no one forces them or puts them in this place and makes them fight for us. Another thing if we were to owe our veterans why just them? Why not all the other occupations that some are put in danger to do, for example Police officers, Firefighters etc.. Therefore were entitled to have a opinion and mine is that we don't owe our veterans anything.…
Veterans are without a doubt heroes, but they are also victims. War has done great damage to our soldiers. PTSD, amputation, depression, loss, and wounds to the body and heart haunt our veterans forever. A normal life for veterans after a war is difficult. Homelessness, lack of jobs, and lack of healthcare for our veterans prevent them from the life they deserve.…
If we did not win this war we wouldn’t have won our independence and we wouldn’t be the same country we are today.
