Be a Proud Civilian and a Proud Veteran


Don’t be another stereotype.  Be a proud veteran by keeping some United States Military values alive and well.  Dress sharp, and wear commemorative watches and rings to show your continual nationalism and personal pride.  Continue to be prompt, stand up tall, and help others during difficult times. Seeing war often leaves scars.  However, you can be a proud civilian and a proud veteran at the same time.

Different Ways to Serve the United States

Below are a few of the many different ways for veterans to serve the United States outside the context of serving in the Armed Forces:

  • Work towards a lucrative career to help boost the U.S. economy.
  • Start a business that will provide sustainable jobs to Americans.
  • Start an organization that can help fellow veterans explore different ways to serve the United States outside of the Armed Forces.
  • Act according to a moral code that will allow you to present veterans in the best way possible in everyday scenarios.  Help others when the opportunity arises.
  • Continue to be respectful of others in order to better serve United States culture.
  • Volunteer for community and not-for-profit organizations.
  • Be an inspiration to others by example.

Few people want to follow others that seem apathetic and sloppy.  Integrate certain aspects of military life into being a proactive and upstanding civilian.

Showing Nationalism and Pride

Treat yourself or treat other veterans to a commemorative ring.  Show a noticeable amount of continual nationalism for the United States of America after serving in the armed forces.  Keep your posture tall, and keep your appearance clean.  Be candid about how much you believe in the United States without appearing like a zealot.  Few people want to talk to the guy waving an American Flag on the street corner while chanting patriotic phrases.  However, many Americans would be interested in talking to a proud veteran about different ways that they can help support U.S. troops overseas and U.S. veterans at home. 

Always lead by example, from the actions you take to the clothing you wear.  Invest in a commemorative ring to show your pride in the U.S. Inspire others while serving your country in different ways by being a proud veteran.
