Step-by-step explanation:
An approximate 13-17% of homeless people in the U.S. are old people. Regardless of how you measure this number, the Department of Veterans Affairs accepts more than its percentage of 7-9.5% of the adult population as a whole.
The honour guard kneeled down in front of his frigid, old mother, looking straight in the eye and with a soft voice, gratefully, and thanks him-my father-for his service when the trumpet made it sound and the flag blinked.
The trumpet, honor and knotting words build a sense of reverence.
