I believe the treatment was due to my appearance. I was returning home from a deployment and wearing desert BDUs. Some of the airlines will admit active military to their club if you show a copy of your deployment orders (DD-24 sound right?).
I've bought a meal for people in uniform several times while waiting in an airport. I just ask the server to add their bill to mine.
