Serious question - in places where they offer military or veteran discount how do you check? Do you ask them to show some relevant id?

    My partner shows a VA card when asked.

    Did your partner eat Iraqi children or Afghan children? Which one tasted his favorite?

    If you read through my post history you would likely edit "coward" to something else more fitting...

    Apologies, I often forget I'm an extremely poor communicator in a community filled with intelligent neurodivergent people, and I need to contextualize better.

    Which makes me an idiot. Not a coward. - to answer your question

    I mean I scrolled thru your comments too but there was nothing that stood out to me. I don't know how your comment history is supposed to show you are an idiot but I'm willing to take your word for it

    Pretty much, yeah. Every veteran and their spouse (and kids under 21) has military ID.

    No they don't. People who separated and didn't retire are veterans, but don't get military IDs. They can get a VA ID or some states will add veteran to their license.

    The big box hardware stores, Home Depot and Lowe’s have sort of set the standard. There are a few ID cards that they accept as proof.

    At the end of the day it is up to each store how they handle it.
