Welcoming Our Soldiers Home

Some Americans might not agree with our government sending soldiers to fight a war in another country. But as americans  we have the right not to agree and can voice our opinions about it.


 Some people are so mad about it that they protest at a soldiers funeral. I think that is horrible. Our soldiers  are doing their job and if they should die doing it, its honorable.


All of our soldiers should be welcomed home as heros that they are. Many soldiers come home from war with life changing injuires. Some come home in a coffin.

The greatest thing a returning soldier can see when he steps off that plane is a cheering crowd with banners saying “welcome home” and “thank you”.

 Our soldiers need our support. It’s not their fault that some people don’t like war. Soldiers don’t like war either, but it’s thier job.

Just this week a marine was welcomed home, here in North Carolina. He lost both of his legs in a bombing in Afghanistan. He was welcomed home by lines of people on the streets to see him as he rode by. 
The news camera and newspaper reporters were there.


This is unbelievable what this town has put together for me," Carnes said. "It shows the true love they have for our service men. "This is great and everything but I wish my brothers and sisters in Afghanistan, especially those in my unit, could be here for this special day."




 It must have felt good to him to see so many people  there for him. I hope that every soldier, especially  the wounded get a welcome home like that.


There shouldn’t be people protesting the war. Some soldiers come home completely changed, physically and mentally. It would be ahrd for them to see some of the bad things of the war and not be affected by it.


 Some of my family has been soldiers and have fought for our country. They had nightmares and it took them a long time to get back to the way they were.
 God Bless our soldiers and the people that welcome them home with a thank you!!

  1. Amazing post, the only thing I found that was off was that you started a sentence with the word "but". That is incorrect sentence structure but easy to fix.
