I used to use that discount at HD. Then they changed it to only Vets with a card showing "Service connected disability", except occasionally on Holidays it was for all Vets with a DD214.

I don't ask for a 'Veteran's discount' but for a 'Military Discount'.  At my HD, it makes a difference.  I still have my old laminated ID and they just glance at this young kid on the picture and give me the discount.

You're welcome!

As far as my move, I'm having mixed emotions.  I'm a walleye fisherman and they don't exist there.  My boat is useless there for the most part, so it's getting sold next month, buyer is my old man and waiting for me to head north before I drop it off.  Going to miss that boat.  I spend almost all of my free days on the water, be it ice or on a boat.  I have amazing freshwater fishing at my finger tips year round here and I absolutely love it.   I know Alaska will be a new adventure and I'm sure I will fall in love, but I'm having trouble coming to terms with the fact I have to leave Montana.

I can understand that !!!

I would hate to leave PA again, but if I had to, Alaska & Montana would be at the top of the list.

I just have to say to all of you guys and gals that have worn or still wearing the uniform of any branch of our military, Thank-you for your service and Welcome Home. I never served (due to Crohns disease) but I have the highest respect for anyone who did. I ride with the Patriot Guard Riders and stand with your fellow brothers in honor of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our Nation. I also have helped for the last 3 yrs raising funds for the Coleman Veterans Memorial in Coleman, MI. It is based on the Memorial at Schofield Barracks in Hawaii. We are believed to be the only Memorial in the Nation that have a female Combat soldier statue. You can check out the Coleman Veterans Memorial by googling it. Its a beautiful memorial.
