The phrase” thank you for your service ” allows us to thank you for putting your life on the line for our country no matter what branch or title. You are very brave, strong and confident.
I think that a lot of people thank veterans (which is kind, and I do appreciate it!), but they don't actually do anything to help them. actions speak much louder than words in my opinion!
one of my family members was severely wounded in the korean war. while I wasn't alive back then to experience that event, I saw firsthand how little care he recieved afterwards while I was growing up. the VA was terrible, he was living in a "house" the size of my living room that was falling apart, and he never got the proper care for his disability that he needed.
we really don't do enough for our veterans. I'm glad that certain things are starting to fall into place to get them the support that they need, but there's still so much room for improvement.
every vet deserves top notch care, both for their physical health and mental health ? we should work hard to get that for them, not just thank them for the sacrifices they made.

They appreciate your work.
I honestly wouldn’t say that to all veterans.. I would just respect them because they have fight for my country while yet, some people should notice that there’s better ways to say to a veteran instead of saying that. So, I think that phrase shouldn’t be involve at all.. since everyone should be treated equality no matter if a person is famous, not famous or a veteran. Equal rights is all that matters to me.
