A Prayer for Veterans from the Book of Common Prayer (page 823)  


Almighty God, we commend to your gracious care and keeping all those serving in our armed forces at home and abroad. Defend them day by day with your heavenly grace; strengthen them in their trials and temptations; give them courage to face the perils which beset them; and grant them a sense of your abiding presence wherever they may be; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
