Sometimes, what makes a veteran a hero has nothing to do with being a soldier. Sometimes, it has nothing to do with going to war, fighting, or even joining the military.
Sometimes, a veteran is a hero long before any of that.

He might have become a hero by some great feat of bravery or strength.
He might have become a hero by saving someone or stopping something bad from happening.

Or, he might be a hero just because he was the best big brother in the world to his little sister.
To her, that is why he always has been and always will be a hero.
