Honoring Service Dogs and Other Ideas for Veteran Appreciation


The canines that served in WWII and in subsequent battles will be given the first monument of its kind in San Antonio.  Showing sincere gratitude and appreciation for veterans is very different from writing a post on a popular social media networking site or a blog.  Take the time to show United States veterans how much you appreciate their dedication to our country. 

Below is a list of ideas for veterans commemoratives:

Idea #1: Personalized Military Rings for Individual Veterans You Know Well

There is almost nothing as meaningful as giving veterans commemorative rings with individualized features such as birthstones and initials.  Customized military rings can quickly become a keepsake and subsequent family heirloom.  Invest in something personal, and show your appreciation to an individual.

Idea #2:  United States Veteran Commemoratives Coins for Fundraisers

Coins such as commemorative silver dollars work well as auction items for fundraisers.  They are less personal, and they can be given to different people.  Commemorative coins can raise money for fundraisers meant to help support veterans.

Idea #3: A Memorial for Different Veterans

The war dogs have received a memorial in San Antonio.  The moral of this particular memorial is that it is important to honor all veterans.  Some veterans were on the front lines, and some served their country from the United States.  It is important to value all service to the U.S. Military, even service from four-legged friends. 

Use Veteran Commemoratives to Benefit Individuals and Causes

Customized military rings are very different than commemorative coins.  You can give a gift to an individual or raise money for a good cause.  Many United States veterans need different types of support, especially when transitioning back to civilian life.  Be a safe person to talk to, or be an influential member of a not-for-profit organization.  Find the best veterans commemoratives to make a difference in how United States veterans experience civilian life.   Help a loved one.  Help military families.  Help an entire organization.  Be an active citizen.  Advocate for better services for U.S. veterans on a large scale, or honor a veteran in your family.
