Nope. Vet here, served ‘82 - ‘96 as a Navy Seabee. No significant wars during that time so never deployed to a combat zone. Still 100% a real vet though. Even reservists are vets.
#4 - Dear Oak Park Thief: I really am sorry you waited until the last minute to get flowers for your mother. When she thanks you for my flowers, be sure to tell her how many gardens you went to before you decided to steal them from mine. Sorry, I can't put myself in your shoes as my Mom didn't raise me to be a thief.
#19 Cut it off or, better yet, break out the lighter!
#19 Just recently the U.S. Department of Transportation announced that airlines will no longer allow any support animals other than certified service dogs.
I wish they'd pass a law clearly stating that the seat you sit on and the back of the seat in front of yours (that has your pull-down tray and screen/monitor) belong to you alone during the entire ticketed flight. The person in the seat in front of you doesn't have the right to encroach on your paid space any more than the person to the seats to the side have trespassing on your seating space.
#5 I'm with the guy eating. He is outside for f@#ks sake. #6 is laughable. There are some very tangible benefits of being a military spouse/dependent, but free meals/drinks offered to veterans does not apply. Hang out around a military base and watch the clubs fill up with wives everytime there is a deployment.

uhh...veteran <i>by definition</i> means you were in the military, i.e., "automatically"
Being employed by the military is just a job. A real vet has been in combat or at least deployed in a combat zone.
That was for Ronny
