The veteran i am  going to type about today is my Dad.He has been in the Army for 15 years he started when he was 19.he only has 6 more to go until he retires.He’s a medic in the fields and when they fight in the wars too so he has a important job and he has to do it in a certain amount of time.because when some body gets hurt he has to take off all the armor that their wearing  but it’s kinda easy to get some of it off,because the new vest that they have has a  string on the front so when they get hurt you can just pull the string and the whole vest falls apart but then he has to put it all back together and that can take up  to three hours!so he doesn’t want to do that put he also doesn’t want his paitent to die but he dose it anyways.but one time they were in war and some body acsidently pulled the string and the whole vest fell apart and he got killed  because it was too late by the time he had got there to save him.he has done a lot for our country and he is proud of all that he has done.
