It's a little ironic that we have Combat Veterans who have served and who are bravely serving so that the rest of us may remain safe and not have to do what they are doing. Take a moment to think about that. Now take a moment to think about how we thank these brave people. Yeah there are benefits, schooling, etc. I have an idea of how we can show our appreciation. Upon separation from active duty, we give each combat veteran a tax exempt status! This would affect Federal, State and Local taxes - like a religious tax exemption. What do you think? Is "not taking" better than "giving?"
By the way, I am a non-combat veteran.
