In the Cultures of Old it was a tradition for the children to sing songs and tell tales of the Bravery of the Warriors who had fought to protect them. This insured that no one in the tribe forgot the sacrifices the Warriors made for the people. We believe that the Veteran of the United States should be remembered. It is time to teach the children about the sacrifices of the Veteran. As citizens, the freedoms we have today are made possible by the generous giving of lives, hearts and minds by our relatives for the security and happiness we enjoy.
CHILDREN'S ORGANIZATIONS & PARTICIPANTS NEED TO:
Make posters signs, banners and flags thanking the Veterans for their sacrifices and the gift of freedom in our country.
