Many schools, scout troops and churches send cards to veterans homes and VA medical centers. Check with the facility first, because each one has its own rules about mail.
"With gratitude," "With respect," "Thank you" and "Proudly" all work. If you are writing to a veteran you do not know, sign your first name and add your town, class or group.
