While meeting the needs of war service veterans, it is important to help our younger veterans. The younger veterans, often called new veterans, are current or former members of the Canadian Forces. Some of them are receiving benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs because of injuries suffered during peacekeeping or other military operations. 3, record 1, English, - modern%2Dday%20veteran

vétéran : 1. Le terme «vétéran» peut à la fois désigner un militaire d'expérience ou un ancien combattant. Si le terme «vétéran» est employé dans le sens d'«ancien combattant», il sera de préférence accompagné d'une précision (identification du conflit) pour éviter toute ambiguïté de sens (p. ex. : les vétérans de 39-45, un vétéran du Viêt-nam). 2. Contrairement au terme anglais «veteran», le terme français «vétéran» n'a pas le sens «d'ancien membre» (des forces armées). Si l'on désire simplement désigner un ancien membre des forces armées, il est préférable d'employer les termes «ex-militaire» ou «ex-membre» (des Forces canadiennes, par exemple). 4, record 1, French, - ancien%20combattant%20de%20l%27%C3%A8re%20moderne
