NC Iowa | i would say yes, you are a veteran. some gave more than others, but all gave some.
the subject was brought up with me a while back on here, implying that era vets are less of a veteran than the war zone vet.
i stand by my reply:
just to clarify, i am an era vet and never claimed to be anything else. i don't want to put myself on the same level as those who served in VN, or was wounded, or died for their country. i also don't want anyone to think my service was insignificant or irrelevant. it was significant and relevant to me. i went everywhere i was ordered to go, and did everything i was ordered to do for 3.9 years.
