Veterans Day

Veterans Day was a special day in the town of Brooksville. It was a day to honour the brave men and women who had served in the military to protect the country.

He had learned in school that Veterans Day was a time to remember the sacrifices made by soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines. It wasn’t just a holiday—it was a way to show gratitude.

Veterans Day is a holiday observed every year on November 11. It honors military soldiers who have served in the United States Armed Forces. Since 1775, the United States Armed Forces have played an important part in the history of the United States. The Armed Forces have done more than just fight.

The presence of 352 Division meant that the number of defenders was literally double the number expected - and on the best fortified of all the invasion beaches.

John Crawford joined the Florida National Guard to pay for his college tuition; it had seemed a small sacrifice to give up one weekend a month and two weeks a year in exchange for a free education. But one semester short of graduating, and newly married, he was called to active duty, to serve in Kuwait, then on the front lines of the invasion of Iraq, and ultimately in Baghdad. While serving in Iraq, Crawford began writing short nonfiction stories, his account of what he and his fellow soldiers experienced.
