I think honoring and making a holiday is a great way to show respect for those who died serving the country. Many people retire after they make it through the military but they usually have lost a limb. Talking to veterans after they have served the US is a great thing to do. Sometimes talking about their memories is all that is needed to make a veteran happy. Without them many innocent lives could of been killed although by risking their life isn’t a good idea their bravery is something you can’t compare anything to. There are times when veterans have a family of their own and they usually have to make sure they come out alive for their children. I think veterans are what come as close to becoming a superhero. (;
