Who and what did this Icon inspire?
Vet colleges inspired me to pass high school with nice grades, so I’ll be able to attend a college that teaches veterinary. Once I’m able to learn everything I need to know, I’ll be able to be a vet if I learned well enough. Vet colleges are where the main learning for vet starts. If I didn’t attend to one, how will I be able to get my degrees? I wouldn’t even understand what I’m suppose to do when a pet is sick or injured.

Ever since I can remember, I’ve always wanted to become a vet because I want to help the sick pets. I know how pets bring joy to people’s lives, so if I cure the pet, I’m actually helping out two things. The pet and the owner. Dogs are my favorite animals, which is what made me what to become a vet. I want to help the sick and injured dogs and all the others pets. Who doesn’t want to help their favorite thing? A vet college is important to me because one day I want to be able to attend to one, learn everything I should know about being a vet, then be able to start my dream and help animals live long and health lives with their owners.

How did this Icon become important in American culture?
Vet colleges helped other dreams become vets. More vets mean more healthy pets to look forward to and healthy pets mean happy owners. Vets are just like any doctor or dentist. Doctors help sick and injured people, while dentist helps people’s teeth. They all help in different ways, rather if it’s you personally or something that is personal to you. That’s why I see vets important to America and other places around the world. Without vets, there’ll be less pets.

My dad, being in the Navy made this important to me. Even though I believe he doesn't go into war or fight like the army, I still see his job to be important. I don't want to be in the navy when I get older nor can I because of my feet, but I like how my dad is in the Navy and making a difference in the U.S even if the difference is very minor. Mostly everything I see around my house has to do about The Navy, which always reminds me of my dad. Who is important to me, so Navy became important to me to.

I believe this inspires anyone who wants to make a difference in anyway. For anyone who wants to fight, but not physically. For anyone who doesn't want to attend college, but doesn't want to end up working for a fast food restaurant. I see the navy inspiring any young adult or adult who are not quite sure what they should do for a living. I don't think anyone in my family is planning on joining. This inspired me to see that not all differences in the world are major or even noticed at times. It could be as simple as recruiting or just fixing small problems on the ship. When recruiting, you helping someone help the world.

The navy is important because they protect the seas and delivers important items and people to certain places. The navy seems like they're helping others help the U.S, so in a way, they're are important to the American culture. The navy does most of the protection of the sea and most of the transportation of items and people. Without the navy, other military forces won't get the important items they need to protect and without the navy's protection, we could easily be attack.

My dad has always been important to me and my family. He taught me things that I can/do use in the world like how to fix a computer or how to drive. I know that he cares about the family by the things he does and how he shows it. I bet he's not only important to my family, but also to his navy workers and his brothers and sisters.

Seeing how my dad is inspires me to be a great parent when I get older. He also inspires me to hopefully find a guy like him who is caring and loving too. I believe he inspired my brothers too to become a good father when the time comes and to love and care for their families. I could see him inspiring the rookies at his job to try and get to Senior chef like he's at.

Create your own question

I tend to wonder how well known my dad is since he's in the navy, if he's known, is he important to others in the world? Are my brothers going to be great dads like him? Did he inspire others to join the navy? To do their best at everything? I usually wonder what goes on when my dad is out to sea. Does little kids around the world see him at work and want to join when the grow up? I wonder how important he is to others as he is to me.
