For my pin, I chose to use the red, white and blue from the American flag. The red represents valor and bravery. White stands for purity and innocence. Blue shows us vigilance, perseverance, and justice. The golden star located on the right of my pin represents the sacrifice veterans have made for their country, and to honor the fallen vets. The words put around the stars are meant to give sincere gratitude to all of those who have served and helped protect our country. It is a simple ‘Thank You’, but it is meant to convey the appreciation that we feel for them and the sacrifices that they have made. On our flag, the stars represent the states and the people inside. A shooting star shows how veterans leave their homes to fight for their country, to make an impact for those they serve with and for.
