I have "Veteran" on my drivers license. And I do keep my VA card in my wallet. One of those pretty much always works

My NY driver’s license identifies me as a veteran. I had to bring in my DD-214 to the DMV when I got my license. Easy process.

+1 here. Pretty easy to get next time you're at a VA clinic.

Usually no. But if I’m making a big purchase like a car or something then I’ll bring it if there is a substantial discount.

You can have you VA ID in your phone just download the VA app

Do you have a VA hospital ID card? They put your picture on it.

To all the post-9/11 veterans, it’s a somber day that unites us all in the reason we fought. It’s easy to forget - especially with the younger generation having 9/11 be a history lesson rather than something they lived through. The waters became muddy with two wars and politicians, but you all stepped up and did your duty. Thank you all for your service, it’s an honor whether we crossed paths or not.
