Yep - those who retired have cards with all the benefits attached - as do their spouses.....I got mine and she got hers and it’s all good.
Home Depot gives me the Veterans Discount every time I shop there
Yes, year round. You can also get your Lowe’s credit card updated to show veterans status and have the veteran’s discount taken off automatically when you use Lowes credit card.
It wasn’t like that. The old boys at the VFW didn’t like us because when we got back to the World, many of us stopping getting haircuts and shaving, smoked pot, rode loud motorcycles, drove sports cars fast on country roads, listened to loud rock and roll and made the two-backed beast with their daughters.
I know this bc of the number of high paid vets who work with me— if you make more than$ 80k you have no VA benefits. So they don’t bother.
I am a veteran with the IDF— we don’t make a wage distinction.
Actually it was rather mild, along the lines of “if the military’s official discharge document isn’t acceptable, what would be?” I suppressed the snide comment because the DMV lady was very nice and helpful; thus undeserving of a snide remark about a Socialist People’s Republic of Maryland rule.
Bttt.

My CO DL has Dept of the Army shield on it to indicate veteran status. also have a DD-214 in my wallet and in my car.
” I showed them my retired ID card and they checked the block. They also said that a DD214 is valid proof of veteran status (snide comment suppressed).”
What’s with the ‘snide comment suppressed’ statement?
see my post # 66
I still don’t get it but nevermind.
Ah, though it might have been along the lines of what the definition of a “veteran” is.
