How to use "Old soldiers' homes" in context?
When World War I began, relatively few people could claim to have served in the armed forces. This meant that many veterans of the war were left without a place to call home. The government responded to the need by opening old soldiers' homes all across the country. These homes were designed to provide affordable housing and support for veterans who were struggling with re-entry into civilian life. Today, old soldiers' homes continue to provide a safe and comfortable place for veterans to live.
