It was a horrifying scene as America watched two planes fly directly into the World Trade Center. 9/11, the day no one wanted to happen. The hardship that came with this day brought our country together united as one and true United States of America. I am very proud of my country and all we have done to achieve our freedom.
Our country took a tough route, determined to get our Freedom and Independence. When we fought against Britain we took many casualties. But in the end, we got our freedom. This day is known as Independence Day, or the Fourth of July. This day proves we have fought for and accomplished much with our freedom. The soldiers who fought were fellow friends and family, which is why we should remember them and what they have done.
Veterans Day is the celebration of our soldiers who have and currently are serving our country. Just as important as Independence Day, Veterans Day give thanks to troops and families who have serving troops. So many people have been put into our military and so many have fought in a war. Schools also made sure that every student would show that they are proud of their country.
Every student in every school says the Pledge of Allegiance. It shows that we too are proud of our country. We study all of the wars that have taken place that our country has been involved in. We study 9/11, and have assemblies on Veteran’s Day and have some troops come in to talk to us about the military, government, and our country’s freedom. A celebration for Independence Day would take place, but that is during our summer break, when we don’t have school.
With all the wars America has been through, it has been tough to achieve freedom but I am still proud of the freedom we have and my country. Hopefully, others will think the same way.
