Mission offer’s free desert to veterans it’s their way to honor and “Thank them for their service”. Guessing some feel their sacrifice isn’t warranted.

You might want to attend Mission when they pin the “Nam” veteran’s. For some it’s one of the few times someone honored them, instead of spitting in their face.

You won’t get a free pin, welcomed home, saluted, or a free dessert. Or understand it took over 50 years to be honored in public. But you can witness a very moving moment for Nam veterans.

Sad, you to think you deserve special recognition, as those sitting at your table. It’s just a free dessert, you must be really upset at PDQ, “Low Class” who gives 1/2 off to Veterans and First Responders, at your table, while you pay full price.
