the veterans of the war ....
Veterans Day and Memorial Day are the two in the US. July 4th is also used to recognize them.
If you are referring to Washington D.C. AKA daily geography week 23, i believe it is :Vietnam Veterans Memorial
World War II memorial
The Vietnam Veterans Memorial is a national war memorial in Washington DC. It was established to honor the members of the US armed forces who fought in the Vietnam War and who died in service or are still unaccounted for.
Verterans day was established to honor soldiers who fought in World War 1.
The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) first erected the Mojave Desert Veterans Memorial cross in 1934 in honor of World War I veterans.
There are any number of ways to honor our veterans. You can do it simply by placing a flag outside your home on national holidays like the 4th of July, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, etc. But you can also do it in a more personal way by visiting any of the many memorials to veterans around the country. Obviously, Washington, DC, has a large number of memorials honoring veterans, like the new WWll Memorial, the Korean War Memorial, and one of the more famous, the Vietnam Memorial, also known as "The Wall." Finally, I personally think the best way to honor a veteran is to walk up to him or her and simply say, "Thank you for your service to our country." (and thanks for asking the question...)
Go to a parade or go to a Memorial Service or somewhere Veterans are speaking. Set up a display in your local library or other public place. Don't ForGet..... Hug a Vet
