It was refused.

I was told they no longer take a military ID card as a valid Government issued ID card. A State of Florida driver's license, which I have been getting by mail for decades, was OK, but not a retired military ID card or any other military ID.

I was insulted. I have thought about it for a few days and I am still insulted by their policy. Am I being too sensitive? Or possibly was their answer of it being company policy wrong and there is some security issue behind it all that I have not heard about?
Not insensitive at all! Everyone, including banks, owe you a debt for your service. I suspect that there are plenty of banks around that would accept your military ID. Let Citizens First know why you are leaving.
