With everyone's busy schedules, when should we make time to celebrate those who fought for our freedom? Every day, people forget those friends and family who fought for our country, and those who might have been wounded, or even those who lost their lives. If we continue to remember them only a handful of times a year, they will begin to fade from us. As long as we don't forget them, those friends and family will stay alive.

Out of 365 days a year, only three of those days are dedicated to cemmemorating those who fought for our country. On May 25, our nation celebrates Memorial Day. Our nation remembers those who fought for our country and died. July fourth is aldo Independance Day. This is the day meant for us to remember the Revolutionary War, and our seperation from England. Novemeber eleventh could also be called be called Veterens Day. We remember all those soldiers, dead or alive, and commemorate them for their help to keep this country safe.

Citizens of this nation should remember those soldiers who fought 365 days a year. We should express our thanks each day, so as they will not be taken for granted. Whether a friend, family member, or stranger, each day someone is in the armed forces, protecting our country. Whether they are in harms way, or home safe, they still have said they will fight and protect us. Thanks to all of the soldiers, we are safe.

Heritage is what should truly shine in a person. Everyday we should stop and think about those people who fought for our country and our heritage.
the people whodied, died for our safety, whether they knew us or not. Without them, we might not have had the freedom and safety we have today.
