Although Veteran's Day is considered a holiday, it isn't like most other holidays. People still go to work, kids still go to school and the world keeps going at its usual pace. It isn't necessarily a day to spend with your family or to eat a huge meal, but it is just as important. It is a day set aside on the calendar to make everyone who has ever been affected by war remember what they went through and be proud and to make those who have not been affected appreciate, at least for one day, what thousands of individuals have done for them. This cartoon in particular shows a family taking time out of their schedule "to say 'thanks.'" In my opinion, letting veterans know that their efforts did not go unnoticed is the most important thing that anyone can do for the men and women of the armed forces.
