What can I use a proof for veteran's discounts (DD214 just confuses most people)?

Ok people need some help with this. I've been asked a couple of times now for proof of veteran status for a veteran discount at various places. A lot of people do not understand that you don't get a military ID upon leaving the service, so they look dumbfounded when you show them your DD214 on your phone off drop box or something similar. With that, I don't have much interaction with the VA , I'd rather not be a bother as there are others who need their services more, so what kind of picture ID proof of service is out there?? Thanks!

In Florida you vet a V on your drivers lic if you present a DD214 at the DMV

That would be great. I don't think they have that in Illinois, that would make it a lot easier.

I was just going to say that (I am in FL, too). It is quite handy. Even though I am still in, it is nice to know that I have that on there.

I didn't know about the V until after I got my license. I will get it when I go in to get my gold star license.

Arizona will put VETERAN on your ID Card/Driver's License with proof of military service.
Most businesses will also accept a membership card from a veteran's organization such as VFW, American Legion, etc.

You can get a VA medical card. They're free and you don't necessarily need medical services to get one. Sure nice to have in case you need help!
