But just because we served doesn't mean we are entitled to discounts from Corporations. As a member of the American Legion for many years I have never heard a Vet say they were "entitled" to anything more than what they signed up for. Whatever a Corporation decides to extend should be considered a recognition and appreciation, not something to be criticized.
