Special Interest:

      A special interest pertaining to veterans day is that you could do all these amazing activities that have to do with honoring veterans. For example some I didn’t name is showing how thankful you are which kind of pertains with writing to someone. But there are many different ways you could express that, not only in writing. You could also fly a flag (correctly). That means to put out a flag to show to other people that you honor this day.
