Veterans Day Tribute by Guest Blogger Eli

Eli wrote this essay for Veterans Day. He will read it at a special service tomorrow. Mom is so proud of all he wrote, I decided to give him a guest spot on the blog. 

The Definition of a Veteran:

A veteran is person who served in the Armed Forces. But, they are so much more than that. A veteran is someone who risked their life for our country because they loved the United States. They went to battle because they wanted to defend our country. They were so courageous. They are great people of courage and are models of character. They are American heroes. They made sacrifices for our country. They deserve great honor and respect for what they have done for us. They are leaders for American citizens.
