Read this speech given by US Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel on Veterans Day 2014. What is the purpose of the speech? Every yea

r, we set aside Veterans Day to honor all the men and women who’ve served our country in uniform. We celebrate veterans from generations past. We welcome a new generation of veterans home from war. And we thank our future veterans, still serving at home and abroad. They are securing our nation through their engagement across the globe. Some are in West Africa, contributing to the global effort to stop the spread of Ebola. Some are in the Middle East, working closely with our coalition partners in the fight against ISIL. And some are in Afghanistan, where next month the United States will responsibly end the longest war in our history. For our troops serving around the world today, and those transitioning out of the military, our obligations are only beginning. Taking care of them, and their families, is a sacred responsibility we must always uphold. Let’s celebrate them by telling their stories. Let’s help those who need it, while supporting their strength and resilience. And let’s honor our veterans by creating new opportunities for them to contribute after their service, so they can continue making a difference in the world. To all our veterans—thank you. Thank you for everything you’ve done for our country. You’re among the best our nation has to offer. God bless you and your families, and happy Veterans Day. A. to express gratitude to US veterans B. to inform the country where veterans are stationed C. to persuade Americans to show their gratitude to veterans D. to support the families and friends of US veterans

Answer:

Explanation:

Playing in the snow seems to be part of many childhood memories. As it happens, it was also part of mine. When it snows during the winter, it provides an opportunity for children to have fun, from building a snowman to making snow angels and even snowball fights. It truly is unfortunate that some people are adverse to this wonderful pastime and I believe that they should take advantage of this annual occurrence. Memories of playing in the snow really brighten my day and for that, I am really grateful.
