I find it interesting that we as students get the day off for veterans day. Also how we have pride for our country and i love it.

Reflection: Veterans is an important day for me because i respect those who fight for our country. They risk their life and for that i admire them. Some leave their families behind and sadly lose their life’s. They deserve this holiday for all their hard work.
