What is a Veteran, Anyway?

Veterans have preserved the freedom and homeland security we so freely enjoy and pass on from generation to generation. What is a Veteran Anyway? helps children understand the everyday sacrifices that veterans make. Opposite each story page is an engaging activity to bring the concept to life such as map-reading, creating an "MRE" meal, learning military hand signals and more. Lesson plans for teachers and discussion points for parents are included, promoting a thematic study of our nation's history, and the generations of veterans that have preserved life and liberty for us all.
