It reminds us to be grateful for their hard work and sacrifices. It's like saying a big "thank you" to the heroes who protect our freedom and help others in need, both at home and around the world.
How to celebrate Armed Forces Day?
On Armed Forces Day, you can celebrate by writing thank-you letters or drawing colorful pictures for soldiers to show your appreciation. You could wear red, white, and blue clothes to honor them. Maybe bake some cookies with your family and take them to a local veteran's center. Watch a parade or a special event on TV about the military. You can also invite friends over and have a little party, talking about how brave and strong the soldiers are and maybe learning about different roles they have. Sharing stories about soldiers in your family can be fun too!
