4 Ways To Say THANK YOU To A Veteran
4 Ways You Can Help Veterans • 1 out 10 veterans alive today were seriously injured at least once in their military careers. • Veterans who have suffered service-related injuries are twice as likely to find the readjustment to civilian life very difficult. • 20% of Iraq war veterans suffer from PTSD. • 12% of Gulf War veterans have suffered from PTSD.
HERE’S HOW YOU CAN HELP
Engage In A Conversation without Judging Them • Don't ask questions like "How does it feel to kill?“ • Don’t preach about how killing cannot be justified. • Ask open-ended questions. Do they miss the military? • What was their favorite moment in the service? • Honor them with your undivided attention.
Donate • Donate to the PTSD Foundation. • Sponsor a companion dog through the • Puppies Behind Bars program. • Donate your time or talent to a Building • Homes for Heroes projectin your area.
Show Up • Attend a Veterans Day parade in your area. • Offer to drive a veteran to the parade • if they cannot do so alone.
A Little Help Goes a Long Way • Volunteer at a VA Hospital. • Place flowers on a veteran’s grave. • Wear your flag with pride • Always remember to respect the fla • in displaying or wearing it.
