Funny
Lots of civilian places offer year round discounts to vets, firefighters and police officers
The free stuff tho I guess is generally attributed to Veterans Day, unless u go to places that really have a soft spot in their heart for vets
Good or bad, vets volunteer for a profession that is more likely to put them in harms way
Whether or not you agree with these dubious current wars, you shouldn't have to be reminded that if and when a full fledge threat to survival of society like ww1 or ww2 happens, service members will be the first ones to board those troop transports to fight and die on us soil or foreign land, so that you can enjoy watching TV, shoveling shit, fucking your girlfriend or whatever civvies did while nazis were gassing Jews and slaughtering Russians
That alone is worth a tip of the hat in my book
