Veterans Day
Veteran’s day is celebrated on November 11 every year. The very first Veteran’s day was called Armistice Day. The poem Freedom isn’t free means that freedom isn’t just free. The poem is saying that you should honor the people who made you free. The poppy is known as the flower for Veteran’s day is because of the Flanders field. The Tomb of the Unknown is the Joldies. Frankie Buckle’s was buried at the Tomb of Unknown. The colors of the flags mean the three points of the compass.
My teacher Mr. Gallagher use to be in the army when he was in high school. He went for 4 years. During his summer and his weekends he went to boot camp to train. The thing I know about his experience is that he had fun and that he enjoyed his time there.
