I hope you will all take advantage of America's attempt to thank us for our military service.

It sure beats getting spit on!

I’m not a vet. But I just thought I would remind everyone going to IHOP to ask for the Rachel Corrie special.

All I can conclude from that is there’d be a shit load of heartburn and they’re trying to kill us.

No thanks.

That's what I like about Lowes - 10% off to anyone with a military ID (even retired). After Katrina, I saved thousands and recently saved again with a new washer/dryer combo that was already on sale.

Those that honor military service year-round get my vote.

Please keep in mind that I speak (type) only for myself...

As a veteran, I choose not to participate in most of these rewards because to do so would require me to alter my already busy work day. I appreciate the sentiment and the gesture, and I encourage those who would like to enjoy them to do so with a heart filled with joy and peace. For those vets that have financial or other difficulties, I especially hope they find many opportunities to partake.

I am very grateful to my country and my fellow veterans - both those I served with and those who came before or after - for the opportunity to serve, while still building my own opportunities for what comes after. I went to school on an ROTC scholarship, and that education has become the key to many post-service opportunities which I am pursuing with as much vigor as I can.

Beyond all of that, I would like to thank every single honorable veteran in this nation. Regardless of political outlook, your service is a reminder of what makes the United States great.

For those that never served in the military, I thank you for each act of service outside of uniform. By giving of yourself to your fellow citizens, you strengthen the bonds between all of us.

Just my $.02.
