Has anyone run across good books, activities, etc. to help the students understand Veterans Day?

I read Pepper's Purple Heart by Heather French - we discuss what a Veteran is and how they helped to keep us safe. When I was volunteering with Support Our Troops I would also have the kids draw pics and write letters to soldiers.

for out "TLC style soldiers. We read, The Wall by Even Bunting and then the kids make a soldier and write about how they help us.
