You served-- you are a vet. period.
Hubby was enlisted during Viet Nam, did two tours there and spent 1 1/2 years in Saudi and Kuwait during and after Desert Storm (he was officer then, was singled out, his unit was not activated)
Two of his brothers, two brothers in law, my uncles and a cousin all served during Viet Nam- one of them in the Armny, two Navy, one Marine, two Air Force, one ARNG. None of them went to Viet Nam. They are all vets, they all deserve full credit for serving. Period
Yes Ma'am!
