Commemorative speech on World War II Veterans

Courage is almost a contradiction in terms. It means a strong desire to live taking the form of readiness to die. This is one of the quotes in Chestertons Orthodoxy. My fellow brethren,  it is with great pride and lush memories that we assemble hear today to celebrate the lives  of  brave warriors. If it were not for these veterans brave deeds, then perhaps the world would still be a catastrophic playfield endowed with rumbles, shambles and blazing inferno, a reason we may not be here today.  It is important to take this moment  in our lives to appreciate the veterans who sacrificed their living in the past to fight  the second world war and ensure that you and  I live in a peaceful world today.

A lot has been said, heard, created, dedicated and written about World War II veterans. In the internet, a whole World War II US Veterans website co-founded by a veteran Dick Berry, has been dedicated to this selfless mighty people. We also have monuments placed in various locations worldwide in the veterans honor.

It has been so many years ago, out of an estimated sixteen million war servers, over half a million are departed, God bless their souls, and others are still with us, in their golden years and still holding the memories of the pasts defining moment. Sometimes, I wonder, how does it feel like to live and serve in such a historical moment

As a nation, we should never feel overwhelmed by the support that we give our beloved veterans or the special ceremonies that we hold of their fond memories. Paul Klee stated that when looking at any significant work of art, remember that a more significant one probably had to be sacrificed. This is what I think of the veterans as much as their lives were important to them, they sacrificed it for the future generation,
The elusive memories of their sacrifice will haunt our hearts forever.
